Pozoi-ahalmena

Zer egiten du bere pozoiak?

Its venom contains three toxins called sarafotoxins, which act strongly on the heart. The venom affects the heart's electrical rhythm, causing an A-V block, which means the signal between the upper and lower chambers of the heart is interrupted. Death from very high doses is rapid and seems to result from effects on the nerves.1

It is an extremely venomous snake. Bites are rare because it lives mostly in deserts and underground and is slow to react. Most people survive a bite with little or no lasting damage, even small children with proper treatment. Only 2 to 3 fatal cases have been recorded since its discovery in 1950, the most recent in 2002, when a man tried to capture a snake near his house.1

Zer egiten du beldurtzen denean?

When threatened, it rolls up with its tail raised and its head hidden under its body.1

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.

Datuak

Its fangs can be turned to point outside its mouth, so it can stab sideways even with its mouth closed.1

Capturing this snake is dangerous, because it can bite sideways even when held by the head. Zoologist Heinrich Mendelssohn was bitten this way when he first captured one in 1944.1

There is currently no antivenom available for this snake.1

Its eggs are large compared with its body size and with snakes in general.1

It mates in July and August, which is late compared with other snakes and may point to a tropical origin.1

It is relatively non-aggressive and slow to react, even when disturbed.1
