Spine-tailed sea snake
The spine-tailed sea snake is a sea snake that lives in shallow bays and estuaries in northern Australia, South-East Asia and New Guinea. It is unusual because it eats almost only fish eggs, and it has lost its fangs. It is one of the few sea snakes whose bite is unlikely to be dangerous to people.1

Uko wayimenya
- Its head shields are regular and symmetrical.1
- Its smooth scales on the back are arranged in 17 rows around the middle of the body.1
- It has 141 to 149 distinct belly scales (ventrals) along its body and 27 to 30 scales under its tail (subcaudals).1
- Adults can reach a snout to vent length (the distance from the tip of the snout to the vent) of about 1 m.1
Imbaraga z'ubumara

Ubumara bwayo bukora iki?
Unlike most sea snakes, it has lost its fangs, and its venom glands have shrunk and are almost entirely non-functional. Its venom is much weaker than that of related sea snakes, because a small change in one of its venom genes reduces the venom's toxicity.1

Niba iruma
- Gupfuka ukanda no kudanyeganyeza (pressure immobilisation): zingira bande ikweduka kandi ifashe neza hejuru y'aho yarumye, hanyuma uzamuke ku rugingo rwose, urushyireho agati ko kurukomeza (attelle), kandi umuntu agume atanyeganyega na gato kugeza ubutabazi buhageze.
- Kura umuntu mu mazi kandi umujyane ku bitaro vuba.
Buri gihe banza uhamagare nimero y'ubutabazi (112, 000, 911). Izi ni inama rusange z'ubutabazi bw'ibanze, si inama za muganga. Ibanze by'ubutabazi bw'ibanze
Irinde akaga
- Ntuzigere ukora, ufata cyangwa ushotora inyamaswa yo mu gasozi, nubwo yaba ntoya, kandi nubwo yasa n'isinziriye cyangwa yapfuye.
- Yihe umwanya. Niba uhuye n'imwe, tuza, usubire inyuma buhoro buhoro kandi uyireke yigendere.
- Niba imwe ikurumye: tuza, ntunyeganyege, hamagara nimero y'ubutabazi (112, 000, 911) cyangwa ujye ku bitaro vuba. Ibuka uko yasaga, ifoto irafasha.
Ntigushakisha ngo ikugirire nabi. Ikoresha ubumara bwayo kugira ngo ifate ibyo kurya cyangwa yirinde, kandi ikunda cyane kwihisha. Ibindi ku kwirinda

Ibintu by'ukuri
It feeds almost exclusively on fish eggs, which is very unusual among sea snakes.1
Only one other species of sea snake, Emydocephalus annulatus, shares this egg-only diet.1
It has strong throat muscles, reduced teeth and a much smaller body than most other sea snakes, all linked to its special diet.1
It gives birth to live young, even though it is a snake that hatches its eggs inside the body.1
