The dog-toothed cat snake is a large, nocturnal snake that is active at night. It lives across Southeast Asia, from southern Thailand to the Philippines and Indonesia, and it is often found in gardens, plantations and towns as well as forests. It is a rear-fanged snake, so its venom is delivered through teeth at the back of its mouth.1

It lives in a wide range of places, from primary and secondary forest to cultivated land, rural gardens and urban areas. It is often found in coconut plantations. In forests it lives in the canopy, high in the trees. On Bali it is relatively common in secondary forests and gardens, especially where trees and bushes grow over rivers and streams.1

Kako jo prepoznaš

  • A slender, large snake that can reach more than 2 m in total length1
  • Yellowish or pale reddish-brown back with dark brown or black crossbars or spots1
  • A wavy or irregular dark stripe behind each eye, with a dark streak on each side of the head1
  • Yellowish belly, sometimes plain or marbled with brown1
  • Strongly enlarged front teeth in the upper and lower jaws. Indonesian populations include black individuals.1

Pogosto zamenjujejo z: Other similar snakes have a more even or nearly even upper and lower line behind the eye, while this species has a distinctly wavy or irregular one. The closely related Boiga hoeseli is found in the Lesser Sundas east of Bali, including Sumbawa and Flores, and not where this species lives.1

Moč strupa

It may have a potent neurotoxic venom, which attacks the nerves. Its effects have been shown to be reversible with neostigmine, a drug that affects nerve signalling, so envenoming from this species can be treated with anticholinesterase therapy.1

Kako nevarna je za ljudi?

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

Its venom may be potent, so any bite should be taken seriously. The effects of the venom have been shown to be reversible with treatment.1

Če ugrizne

  • Envenoming from this species is said to be treatable with anticholinesterase therapy, which is a medical treatment.1
  • Ugriz umij, poškodovanca pomiri in poišči zdravniško pomoč. Nekatere vrste (na primer bumslang) so lahko smrtno nevarne še čez nekaj ur.

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 te ugrizne: ostani miren, ne premikaj se, pokliči številko za klic v sili (112, 000, 911) ali hitro pojdi v bolnišnico. Zapomni si, kako je izgledala, fotografija pomaga.

Ne preži nate. Strup uporablja, da ulovi hrano ali se zaščiti, in se veliko raje skrije. Več o varnosti
