The beaked sea snake is a highly venomous sea snake. It lives in warm coastal waters across the Indo-Pacific, from the Persian Gulf to Southeast Asia. It is one of the snakes most often involved in sea snake bites, so it matters a lot to people who work or swim near the coast.1

This species is linked to more than 50% of all sea snake bites and to the majority of envenomings and deaths from sea snake bites; some estimates say up to 90% of all sea snake bites. The average venom yield per bite is about 7.9 to 9.0 mg, and the estimated lethal human dose is 1.5 mg. Some herpetologists describe it as aggressive.1

Sch'el morda

  • Immobilisaziun cun squitsch: envolva ina bandascha elastica ferma sur la morsa e lura vi da l'entir member ensi, fixescha el cun ina stecca e tegna la persuna dal tut immobila, fin che l'agid arriva.
  • Porta la persuna or da l'aua e spert en in ospital.

  • Dà spazi a l'animal. Sche ti scuntras in, resta calm, va plaun enavos e lascha ir el per sia via.
