The coastal taipan is one of the most feared snakes in Australia. It is a large, fast snake with a powerful venom, and it lives along the coasts of northern and eastern Australia and on the island of New Guinea. It is one of the reasons snake bite safety matters so much in these areas.1

Hasiera
It lives in warm, wet coastal regions, monsoon forests, open woodland and grassy areas, including grazing paddocks and disused rubbish tips. It has adapted well to sugarcane fields, where it feeds on rodents. It shelters in abandoned animal burrows, hollow logs and piles of vegetation and litter.1

Zer jaten du?
It mainly eats rats, mice and bandicoots, and will take birds when it has the chance. It scans for prey with its good eyesight, freezes when it finds a target, then strikes with several quick bites and releases the prey, which staggers away. This keeps the snake safer from retaliation by rats.1

Nola ezagutu

  • Light olive or reddish-brown upperparts, sometimes dark grey to black1

  • Long, narrow head with an angular brow and a lighter-coloured face1
  • Large, round, light brown or hazel eyes with large pupils1
  • Typically about 2.0 m long as an adult, with a slender body1

Askotan honekin nahasten da: It is often confused with the eastern brown snake, northern brown snake and king brown snake. The coastal taipan has a larger head and a narrow neck, and a lighter face and snout. In the other species, the head and neck are the same width.1

Pozoi-ahalmena

Koska

Pozoia letaginetatik edo hortzetatik ateratzen da kosk egiten duenean.

Zer egiten du bere pozoiak?

Its venom is mainly neurotoxic, which means it attacks the nerves, and it is also coagulopathic, which means it disturbs blood clotting. In a recorded bite case, the victim became unwell within 15 to 30 minutes, with drooping eyelids, nausea and difficulty breathing. Some victims have also lost their sense of smell for a time.1

Zein arriskutsua da pertsonentzat?

Arriskua pertsonentzat: HilgarriaMunduko animaliarik arriskutsuenetako bat.

It is considered one of the most dangerous snakes in the region and is classified by the World Health Organization as a snake of medical importance. Several deaths were recorded from its bites in the 1930s and 1940s, and more were added later as historical cases.1

Albiste ona: medikuek badute sendagai bat (antipozoia) edo tratamendu bat honetarako.1

Zer egiten du beldurtzen denean?

It tends to avoid confrontation but becomes highly defensive if provoked.1

Kosk egiten badu

  • Any suspected bite needs urgent medical care. In one recorded case, the bitten man was taken to hospital, where he was given fluids and tiger snake antivenom, and he recovered after 19 days in hospital.1
  • Presio-immobilizazioa: bildu benda elastiko sendo bat koskaren gainean eta gero gorputz-adar osoan gora, immobilizatu ferula batekin, eta eutsi pertsona guztiz geldi laguntza iritsi arte.
  • Ez garbitu koska: ospitaleetan azalean geratutako pozoia azter dezakete antipozoi egokia aukeratzeko.

Deitu beti lehenik zure larrialdi-zenbakira (112, 000, 911). Lehen sorospenei buruzko orientabide orokorra da hau, ez mediku-aholkua. Lehen sorospenen oinarriak

Egon seguru

  • Ez ukitu, ez harrapatu eta ez zirikatu inoiz animalia basati bat, txikia izan arren, eta lo edo hilda dagoela badirudi ere.
  • Utzi tartea. Bat aurkitzen baduzu, egon lasai, egin atzera poliki eta utzi bere bidetik joaten.
  • Batek kosk egiten badizu: egon lasai, egon geldi, deitu zure larrialdi-zenbakira (112, 000, 911) edo joan ospitalera azkar. Gogoratu nolakoa zen, argazki batek laguntzen du.

Ez dabil zure atzetik. Pozoia janaria harrapatzeko edo bere burua babesteko erabiltzen du, eta askoz nahiago du ezkutatu. Seguru egoteari buruz gehiago
