The northern brown snake is a fast, highly venomous snake found across the north of Australia. It lives in dry country, woodlands and grasslands, and sometimes near towns. It matters because its bite can be deadly, so it is important to know what it looks like and to keep your distance.1

Kako jo prepoznaš

  • Its back can be shades of orange-brown with flecks and bands, or it can be plain.1
  • Its belly is cream to orange with pink blotches.1
  • Some individuals have jet black heads.1
  • Others have a black 'V' shape on the back of the neck, just below the head.1
  • It grows up to 1.8 m in total length, including the tail.1

Pogosto zamenjujejo z: Some northern brown snakes have jet black heads, which can cause them to be confused with the black-headed python.1

Moč strupa

Ugrizi

Kaj naredi njen strup, ko ugrizne ali piči?

Its venom contains neurotoxins, which attack the nerves, nephrotoxins, which damage the kidneys, and a procoagulant, which affects blood clotting. Although its venom is not the most toxic in the brown snake genus, each bite can deliver a relatively large amount, so it has a high potential to cause a deadly bite. Human symptoms include headache, nausea or vomiting, abdominal pain, severe coagulopathy (serious blood clotting problems) and sometimes kidney damage.1

Kako nevarna je za ljudi?

The northern brown snake has a high potential to deliver a deadly bite. The bite is usually painless and is difficult to see because the fangs are small, so a bite can go unnoticed. In dogs and cats, paralysis is also likely to occur.1

Kaj naredi, ko se prestraši?

It usually prefers to retreat from danger, but it is very aggressive when disturbed or threatened and will defend itself if cornered.1

Če ugrizne

  • Imobilizacija s pritiskom: čvrsto ovij elastični povoj čez ugriz in nato navzgor po celem udu, ud imobiliziraj z opornico in poškodovanca drži popolnoma pri miru, dokler ne pride pomoč.
  • Ugriza ne umivaj: v bolnišnici lahko strup, ki je ostal na koži, preverijo in izberejo pravi protistrup.

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
