The Santa Catalina rattlesnake is a small, slender pit viper with a very unusual feature: it has no rattle. It lives only on Isla Santa Catalina, a small island in the Gulf of California off the coast of Baja California Sur, Mexico. It is critically endangered.1

It lives in Gulf Coast desert plants, mostly on the western side of the island, in dry washes called arroyos, plains, ravine bottoms, stream riverbeds and rocky hilltops. It shelters in rock crevices and dense vegetation.1

Kaj je?
Its diet is mostly mammals, especially the Santa Catalina deer mouse, with some lizards. It holds its prey in its jaws until the venom takes effect, rather than biting and releasing it.1

Kako jo prepoznaš

  • It has no rattle. The tail tip falls off with each shed instead of forming new segments.1
  • It is relatively slender and small, growing to a maximum of 73.1 cm.1
  • The most common colour form has a light cream base with reddish-brown blotches down the back and black and white banding around the tail.1
  • The other colour form is ash grey with darker grey blotches, and it still has tail banding.1
  • It is mostly active at night and is often seen out in the open rather than hiding.1

Moč strupa

Ugrizi

Strup pride ven skozi strupnike ali zobe, ko ugrizne.

Kaj naredi njen strup, ko ugrizne ali piči?

It is venomous, like all pit vipers. It holds its prey in its jaws until the venom takes effect, so the prey cannot escape before it succumbs.1

Nevarnost za ljudi: ResnoPo ugrizu je potreben zdravnik. Smrtni primeri so zelo redki.

Kaj naredi, ko se prestraši?

Unlike most rattlesnakes, it does not tend to hide, and because it has no rattle it gives no audible warning.1

Če ugrizne

  • Poškodovanca drži pri miru in ga pomirjaj, ugriznjeni ud drži v višini srca, odstrani prstane in tesne stvari ter ga hitro odpelji v bolnišnico.

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

Dejstva

1

It is one of the few rattlesnakes that has lost its rattle. The tail tip falls off with each shed instead of forming a new segment.1

2

Although it is a rattlesnake, it is a swift and skilful climber, and individuals were most often found in low bush branches during the hottest month, July.1

3

Its main prey, the Santa Catalina deer mouse, lives only on this island, so the snake's food supply is also very limited.1

4

It does not hibernate, and the evidence suggests it is nocturnal even in winter.1

5

Its closest relative on the mainland is the red diamond rattlesnake, which eats a much wider range of prey, including frogs, birds and other snakes.1
