Many-banded krait
The many-banded krait is an extremely venomous snake found in central and southern China and much of Southeast Asia. It is black or bluish-black with many white bands across its body. It matters because its bite can be fatal, and it is one of the most venomous land snakes in the world.1

Kā to atpazīt
- The body is black to dark bluish-black.1
- It has about 21 to 30 white or creamy white cross bands along its upper body.1
- The short, pointed tail is black with 7 to 11 white cross bands.1
- The head is mostly black, broad and oval, and slightly flat.1
- Young snakes often have whitish blotches on the underside of the head.1
Bieži jauc ar: The Malayan krait (Bungarus candidus) is easily confused with this species. A 2017 genetic study found that many museum specimens labelled as many-banded kraits in China were actually Malayan kraits.1

Its venom contains neurotoxins, which attack the nerves and the connections between nerves and muscles. Local effects are usually mild, with slight itching and numbness rather than serious swelling or pain. Symptoms usually start one to six hours after a bite and can include drooping eyelids, double vision, weakness, tongue paralysis, loss of voice and difficulty breathing.1
Cik bīstams tas ir cilvēkiem?
Bīstamība cilvēkiem: NāvējošsViens no bīstamākajiem dzīvniekiem pasaulē.Estimated death rates from untreated bites vary between studies, from 25–35% to 70–100%. In a serious bite, breathing can stop and lead to death. In 2001, a juvenile bit the herpetologist Joe Slowinski in Myanmar and he died 29 hours later.1
Ko tas dara, kad ir nobijies?
It is generally timid and placid, but it is more defensive at night and thrashes about when handled.1
Ja tas iekož
- Turi cilvēku nekustīgu un mierīgu, novelc gredzenus un visu, kas cieši spiež, un ātri nogādā slimnīcā: ārstē ar pretindi.
Vienmēr vispirms zvani uz savu ārkārtas numuru (112, 000, 911). Tie ir vispārīgi pirmās palīdzības padomi, nevis medicīniska konsultācija. Pirmās palīdzības pamati
Esi drošībā
- Nekad neaiztiec, neķer un neķircini savvaļas dzīvnieku, pat mazu, un pat ja tas izskatās aizmidzis vai miris.
- Dod tam vietu. Ja tādu satiec, saglabā mieru, lēnām atkāpies un ļauj tam iet savu ceļu.
- Ja tāds tev iekož: saglabā mieru, nekusties, zvani uz savu ārkārtas numuru (112, 000, 911) vai ātri dodies uz slimnīcu. Atceries, kā tas izskatījās, foto palīdz.
Tas nav nolēmis tevi medīt. Tas izmanto indi, lai noķertu barību vai aizsargātos, un daudz labprātāk paslēptos. Vairāk par drošību

Fakti
Its venom is among the most potent of any land snake, based on lab tests on mice dating back to 1943.1
In 2001, a juvenile bite in Myanmar killed Joe Slowinski, which drew worldwide attention to the species.1
The snake that bit Slowinski was first thought to be this species, but it was later classified as a different species.1
It is active from April and retreats into hibernation in November.1
Mītu grāvējs
Mīts: American soldiers in the Vietnam War called it the "two-step snake", believing its venom could kill a person within two steps.
Patiesība: Its symptoms usually start one to six hours after a bite, and death can take much longer. The two-step belief is wrong, and a bite still needs urgent medical care.1
