Stephens' banded snake
Stephens' banded snake is a tree-dwelling snake that lives only on the east coast of Australia. It is highly venomous, and its venom affects the blood, so it is one of the snakes that people should give plenty of space. It spends most of its life high in the trees of forests.1

Akkaataa itti beekamu
- Alternating bands of grey or black and dirty-white along the back, with over 40 of each colour from the back of the head to the tip of the tail1
- A flat, mostly dirty-white belly, with occasional grey splotches towards the head and tail1
- A dark brown top of the head, with pale blotches or bars along the lips1
- A slender body with a broadened, arrow-shaped head1
- Mostly active at night, and often found in tree hollows high in the canopy1
Yeroo baay'ee kan itti wal fakkeessan: Its closest relatives are the broad-headed snake, which shares its coastal range, and the pale-headed snake, which lives further inland. All three are tree-dwelling snakes in the same genus.1
Humna summii

Summiin isaa (ciniinnaa ykn iddiin) maal godha?
Its venom is procoagulant, meaning it makes blood clot. It contains prothrombinase, which triggers the production of thrombin in the blood, causing tiny clots throughout the body. Symptoms include nausea, headache, abdominal pain, vomiting, diarrhoea and sweating. If left untreated, the clotting leads to excessive bleeding as blood vessels rupture.1
