The bardick is a short, stocky snake from Australia that is mostly active at night. It is considered venomous to humans, but very little is known about its venom, and bites on people are rare. It is a snake that is worth recognising and leaving alone.1

Its venom contains neurotoxins, which attack the nerves. In tests it is highly neurotoxic to birds, comparable to the tiger snake, copperhead and inland taipan. Research on its venom is extremely limited, and the snake has not shown neurotoxic effects in people even after significant envenoming.1

It is considered venomous to humans, but there is very little information about its bites. Bites on people are rare. One known case needed hospital treatment because of complications.1

Bunas novitads: ils medis han in medicament (antiserum) u in tractament per quai.1

Sch'el morda

  • The one known human case was hospitalised and treated with common death adder antivenom, which abated the complications. This antivenom is made for a different snake, the common death adder. Seek medical care urgently after any bite.1
