ကိုက်ခြင်း

ကိုက်တဲ့အခါ အဆိပ်က အစွယ် ဒါမှမဟုတ် သွားကနေ ထွက်တယ်။

သူ့အဆိပ်က ဘာလုပ်လဲ?

This snake is rear-fanged, so its venom is delivered through grooved teeth at the back of the upper jaw rather than through hollow front fangs. Its venom can cause internal bleeding, including bleeding in the brain, nausea, and blood clotting problems such as disseminated intravascular coagulation. In animal tests, the venom caused kidney failure.1

လူအတွက် ဘယ်လောက် အန္တရာယ်ရှိလဲ?

After one fatal and several near-fatal envenomations, the snake was reclassified as dangerous. Most bites to people involve the front teeth and cause no harmful effects, but rare bites from the rear fangs can be lethal. Recent reports describe severe envenomation and organ failure, affecting the kidneys and liver, after even brief bites.1

ကြောက်တဲ့အခါ ဘာလုပ်လဲ?

When threatened, for example by being touched, it can burst its nuchal glands in the red neck, releasing stored toad toxins (bufotoxins) that cause fast heartbeat, drooling, convulsions and paralysis.1
