Common quail

Coturnix coturnix

O imenu: The scientific name Coturnix coturnix repeats the Latin word for the common quail. The English word quail may come from a Germanic or Old French word that imitates the bird's cry.1

Druge živali, strupene za dotik ali zaužitje

Strupena za zaužitjeJe: Malo vsegaStrupena za dotik ali zaužitje, ne ob ugrizu ali piku

Nevarnost za ljudi: BolečeLahko zelo boli, a skoraj nikoli ni resno.

The common quail is a small, plump ground-nesting bird. It breeds across Europe and North Africa and spends the winter in Africa and southern India. Its meat can be poisonous, so it is a bird where a little knowledge matters.1

Strupena ob ugrizu ali ob dotiku? Nekatere živali strup vbrizgajo z ugrizom ali pikom: te so strupene ob ugrizu ali piku. Druge so škodljive, če se jih dotakneš ali jih poješ: te so strupene za dotik ali zaužitje. Ta žival je strupena za dotik ali zaužitje.

Kako jo prepoznaš

A small, compact bird about 16 to 18 cm long1
Streaked brown plumage with a white eyestripe1
Males have a white chin1
Long wings, unlike most game birds1
A call of three repeated chirps, and the male's song sounds like 'wet-my-lips'1

Pogosto zamenjujejo z: The Japanese quail (Coturnix japonica), native to Asia, looks very similar. Its call is very different from that of the common quail, which is the best way to tell them apart.1

Moč strupa

Strupena za zaužitje

Škodljiva je samo, če jo kaj poje.

Kaj naredi njen strup, če se je dotakneš ali jo poješ?

This bird is not venomous. Its meat can be poisonous if the birds have eaten certain plants, although which plants is still debated. The resulting illness, called coturnism, causes muscle soreness and may lead to kidney failure.1

Kako nevarna je za ljudi?

Nevarnost za ljudi: BolečeLahko zelo boli, a skoraj nikoli ni resno.

One in four people who eat poisonous quail meat become ill with coturnism. The illness can lead to kidney failure.1

Kaj naredi, ko se prestraši?

When flushed, it keeps low and soon drops back into cover. It would rather creep away than fly.1

Če se je je kdo dotaknil ali jo pojedel

Če jo je kdo pojedel ali ima po zaužitju simptome: takoj pokliči številko za klic v sili ali center za zastrupitve.

Vedno najprej pokliči številko za klic v sili (112, 000, 911). To so splošna navodila za prvo pomoč, ne zdravniški nasvet. Osnove prve pomoči

Ostani varen

Nikoli se ne dotikaj divje živali, je ne lovi in je ne draži, tudi če je majhna in tudi če je videti, kot da spi ali je mrtva.
Pusti ji prostor. Če jo srečaš, ostani miren, počasi stopi nazaj in jo pusti, da gre svojo pot.
Če si se je dotaknil ali jo pojedel: ne drgni si oči ali ust, umij si roke in poišči zdravniško pomoč.

Ne preži nate. Njen strup je tam samo zato, da je nihče ne poje. Več o varnosti

Dejstva

Huge numbers are caught in nets along the Mediterranean coast of Egypt. An estimated 12.9 million birds were caught across Egypt in 2012 during the autumn migration.1

In 1537, Queen Jane Seymour, third wife of Henry VIII, developed a strong craving for quail. Courtiers and diplomats abroad were ordered to find supplies for her.1

The Book of Numbers in the Bible describes a huge mass of quails blown in by a wind, which the Israelites took as meat in the wilderness.1

Common quails are strongly migratory, unlike most game birds.1

The young can leave the nest and feed themselves shortly after hatching, and they stay with the family group for 30 to 50 days.1
