Stephens' banded snake is a tree-dwelling snake that lives only on the east coast of Australia. It is highly venomous, and its venom affects the blood, so it is one of the snakes that people should give plenty of space. It spends most of its life high in the trees of forests.1

Zer jaten du?

It is a nocturnal predator that hunts both by actively searching and by ambush. It often coils among rodent nests in tree hollows and waits for prey to return. It mainly eats frogs, small lizards, bush rats, mice and pygmy possums, and it hunts juveniles because its mouth is too small for adult prey.1

Nola ezagutu

Alternating bands of grey or black and dirty-white along the back, with over 40 of each colour from the back of the head to the tip of the tail1
A flat, mostly dirty-white belly, with occasional grey splotches towards the head and tail1
A dark brown top of the head, with pale blotches or bars along the lips1
A slender body with a broadened, arrow-shaped head1
Mostly active at night, and often found in tree hollows high in the canopy1

Askotan honekin nahasten da: Its closest relatives are the broad-headed snake, which shares its coastal range, and the pale-headed snake, which lives further inland. All three are tree-dwelling snakes in the same genus.1

Pozoi-ahalmena

Koska

Pozoia letaginetatik edo hortzetatik ateratzen da kosk egiten duenean.

Zer egiten du bere pozoiak?

Its venom is procoagulant, meaning it makes blood clot. It contains prothrombinase, which triggers the production of thrombin in the blood, causing tiny clots throughout the body. Symptoms include nausea, headache, abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhoea and sweating. If left untreated, the clotting leads to excessive bleeding as blood vessels rupture.1

It is described as a ready biter, and its envenoming is potentially fatal. Only one death has been recorded: an elderly man in his 60s in Kalang, New South Wales, whose rescue was delayed by torrential rain and floods.1

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

Zer egiten du beldurtzen denean?

It is described as nervous and defensive towards other animals, and it is a ready biter when threatened.1

Kosk egiten badu

Victims have been successfully treated with up to four doses of 3,000 unit tiger snake antivenom. The wounded person must be transported to hospital for medical treatment.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.

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
