The yellow-lipped sea krait is a highly venomous sea snake. It lives in tropical waters of the Indo-Pacific, between the Indian Ocean and the Pacific. It spends much of its time underwater hunting, but it comes ashore to digest food, rest and breed.1

Hasiera
It lives in coastal waters and on the land beside them, and adults spend about half their time on land. People often meet it because it turns up in the water intake and exhaust pipes of boats, and it is drawn to lights in hotels and other buildings on coasts.1

Nola ezagutu

  • Black head with a yellow upper lip and snout. The yellow extends back above the eye.1
  • Upper body is a bluish grey, with black rings of about the same width along its length. The belly is yellowish.1
  • Paddle-shaped tail, adapted for swimming.1
  • Between 21 and 25 rows of overlapping scales run along the middle of the body.1

Askotan honekin nahasten da: The yellow-lipped New Caledonian sea krait is similar. It has fewer rows of scales, and its scales narrow or fail to meet. The dark bands of the yellow-lipped sea krait meet across the belly.1

Pozoi-ahalmena

Koska

Pozoia letaginetatik edo hortzetatik ateratzen da kosk egiten duenean.

Its venom is a very powerful neurotoxic venom, which attacks the nerves. It blocks signals between nerves and muscles, which causes paralysis. In mice, lethal doses caused lethargy, paralysis and convulsions in quick succession before death.1

Fewer bites are recorded from this snake than from cobras and vipers, because it is less aggressive and tends to avoid people. Bites usually happen when it is accidentally grabbed. Most sea snake bites happen when fishermen try to untangle the snakes from their nets.1

Zer egiten du beldurtzen denean?

It is not aggressive and only attacks when it feels threatened, and its tail moves and looks like its head, which can fool predators.1

Kosk egiten badu

  • 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.
  • Atera pertsona uretatik eta eraman ospitalera azkar.

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.

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