The dog-toothed cat snake is a large, nocturnal snake that is active at night. It lives across Southeast Asia, from southern Thailand to the Philippines and Indonesia, and it is often found in gardens, plantations and towns as well as forests. It is a rear-fanged snake, so its venom is delivered through teeth at the back of its mouth.1

It lives in a wide range of places, from primary and secondary forest to cultivated land, rural gardens and urban areas. It is often found in coconut plantations. In forests it lives in the canopy, high in the trees. On Bali it is relatively common in secondary forests and gardens, especially where trees and bushes grow over rivers and streams.1

Što jede?

Kako ga prepoznati

  • A slender, large snake that can reach more than 2 m in total length1
  • Yellowish or pale reddish-brown back with dark brown or black crossbars or spots1
  • A wavy or irregular dark stripe behind each eye, with a dark streak on each side of the head1
  • Yellowish belly, sometimes plain or marbled with brown1
  • Strongly enlarged front teeth in the upper and lower jaws. Indonesian populations include black individuals.1

Često se miješa s: Other similar snakes have a more even or nearly even upper and lower line behind the eye, while this species has a distinctly wavy or irregular one. The closely related Boiga hoeseli is found in the Lesser Sundas east of Bali, including Sumbawa and Flores, and not where this species lives.1

Otrovna snaga

Ugrizi

Otrov izlazi kroz očnjake ili zube kad ugrize.

Što radi njegov otrov kad ugrize ili ubode?

It may have a potent neurotoxic venom, which attacks the nerves. Its effects have been shown to be reversible with neostigmine, a drug that affects nerve signalling, so envenoming from this species can be treated with anticholinesterase therapy.1

Koliko je opasno za ljude?

Opasnost za ljude: BolnoMože jako boljeti, ali gotovo nikad nije ozbiljno.

Its venom may be potent, so any bite should be taken seriously. The effects of the venom have been shown to be reversible with treatment.1

Ako ugrize

  • Envenoming from this species is said to be treatable with anticholinesterase therapy, which is a medical treatment.1
  • Operi ugriz, smiri osobu i potraži liječničku pomoć. Neke vrste (poput bumslanga) mogu biti smrtonosne satima kasnije.

Uvijek prvo nazovi broj za hitne slučajeve (112, 000, 911). Ovo su opće upute za prvu pomoć, a ne liječnički savjet. Osnove prve pomoći

Ostani na sigurnom

  • Nikad ne diraj, ne hvataj i ne zadirkuj divlju životinju, čak ni malu, i čak ni ako izgleda kao da spava ili je mrtva.
  • Ostavi joj prostora. Ako je sretneš, ne paniči, polako se odmakni i pusti je da ode svojim putem.
  • Ako te neka ugrize: ne paniči, miruj, nazovi broj za hitne slučajeve (112, 000, 911) ili brzo idi u bolnicu. Zapamti kako je izgledala, fotografija pomaže.

Ne želi ti ništa loše. Otrov koristi za lov hrane ili za obranu i mnogo bi se radije sakrilo. Više o sigurnosti
