Gigitan

Bisa keluar melalui taring atau giginya apabila ia menggigit.

Apa kesan bisanya?

Its venom is highly haemorrhagic, which means it causes bleeding, and it also breaks down fibrinogen, a protein needed for clotting. It also contains neurotoxic components that affect the nerves, and it is myotoxic, meaning it damages muscle. Common symptoms are pain, swelling, redness and bruising, and bruising can spread far from the bite, even up the arm or to the chest and abdomen.1

Berapa bahaya ia kepada manusia?

Accidents are generally not serious, because the snake has difficulty injecting venom and produces only small amounts. However, there have been reports of serious bites needing medical treatment. In one recent severe case, the snake was allowed to bite for a long time, and the victim developed clotting problems, liver damage and severe swelling. Only one death has been reported, and it was a child.1

Jika ia menggigit

Serious bites need medical treatment. The antivenom made for Bothrops snakes is not suitable for bites from this snake.1
Basuh tempat gigitan, pastikan orang itu tenang dan dapatkan bantuan perubatan. Sesetengah spesies (seperti boomslang) boleh membawa maut beberapa jam kemudian.

berguna untuk diketahui

Fakta

In laboratory mice, its venom had a lethality equivalent to that of Bothrops asper, a pit viper.1

It is rear-fanged, so its fangs are at the back of the mouth, and it chews venom into its prey through a grooved tooth.1

The venom is made in the Duvernoy's gland at the back of the mouth, and the snake must work hard to deliver it.1

Pemecah mitos

Mitos: Bites from this snake are never serious.

Hakikat: Most accidents are not serious, because the snake struggles to inject venom. Still, serious bites have happened, and one child has died, so any bite needs medical attention.1
