Egyptian cobra
KirumaThe Egyptian cobra is one of the most venomous snakes in Northern Africa. It lives across much of North Africa and the savannas of West Africa, and it often lives close to people, sometimes entering villages and houses. Its bite is dangerous, so it is important to know what it looks like.1
Engeri y'okukitegeera
- Its large, flattened head is slightly distinct from its neck, and it can spread a hood like other cobras.1
- Most individuals are some shade of brown, often with a tear-drop mark below the eye.1
- Some are copper-red or grey-brown, and those from Morocco are almost entirely black.1
- The belly is mostly creamy white, yellow brown, grey, blue grey, dark brown or black, often with dark spots.1
- It is a large snake, with an average length of roughly 1.4 metres.1
Amaanyi g'obusagwa
Obusagwa buyita mu mannyo gaakyo amawanvu (fangs) oba mu mannyo amalala nga kiruma.
Obusagwa bwakyo bukola ki?
Its venom is mainly made of neurotoxins, which attack the nerves, and cytotoxins, which damage cells. The venom stops nerve signals reaching the muscles, and in later stages it also affects the heart and lungs, which can lead to death from respiratory failure. A bite causes local pain, severe swelling, bruising, blistering and tissue death, and may also cause headache, vomiting, dizziness, convulsions or paralysis.1
Kirina akabi kenkana wa eri abantu?
Akabi eri abantu: KittaEmu ku nsolo ezisinga akabi mu nsi.The venom is strong enough to kill a person. A single bite can release an average of 175 to 300 mg of venom. Its venom is slow-acting and does not always cause death. Venom from northern African populations, especially from Egypt, Tunisia, Algeria and Libya, is more potent than venom from southern and western populations.1
Amawulire amalungi: abasawo balina eddagala (antivenom) oba obujjanjabi ku kino.1
Kikola ki nga kitidde?
When approached, it usually tries to escape, but if threatened it rises up with its hood spread and strikes.1
Bwe kiruma
- Get to a hospital fast: antivenom is the treatment. In a 2018 case, a bitten man was evacuated to Egypt, treated with antivenom and made a full recovery.1
- Omuntu muleke ateetambula era ateefu, ggyamu empeta n'ebintu ebinyweza, era omutwale mu ddwaliro mangu: eddagala eriwonya obusagwa (antivenom) bwe bujjanjabi.
Bulijjo sooka kuba ennamba y'ebigwa bitalaze (112, 000, 911). Buno bulagirizi bwa bujjanjabi obusooka obwa bulijjo, si kuwabula kwa musawo. Obujjanjabi obusooka obw'omusingi
Weekuume
- Tokwatako, tokwata wadde okusoomooza ensolo ey'omu nsiko, ne bw'eba ntono, era ne bw'eba erabika nga yeebase oba nga efudde.
- Gireke n'ebbanga. Bw'osisinkana emu, beera mukkakkamu, dda emabega mpola era gireke egende mu kkubo lyayo.
- Bw'emu ekuluma: beera mukkakkamu, totambula, kuba ennamba y'ebigwa bitalaze (112, 000, 911) oba tuuka mu ddwaliro mangu. Jjukira bwe yali efaanana, ekifaananyi kiyamba.
Tekikunoonya. Kikozesa obusagwa bwakyo okukwata emmere oba okwekuuma, era kyandisinze kwekweka. Ebirala ku kwekuuma

Ebituufu
Most ancient sources blame an Egyptian cobra for the death of Cleopatra and her two handmaidens, though recent researchers have questioned this.1
Ancient Egyptian pharaohs wore a stylised cobra, the uraeus, on their diadem as a symbol of sovereignty.1
In 2006, a pet cobra escaped in Toronto and forced the evacuation of a house for more than five months.1
In 2011, a venomous female cobra went missing from the Bronx Zoo and was found in a dark corner of the reptile house six days later. Staff named her "Mia", for "missing in action".1
It is often found in water, and there are records of it swimming in the Mediterranean Sea.1
Omumenyi w'enfumo
Enfumo: Egyptian cobras spit venom, like some other African cobras.
Amazima: This species does not spit venom. It delivers its venom by biting.1
