The small-scaled burrowing asp is a black snake that lives underground in parts of West Africa. It is a venomous snake with long, hollow fangs, and scientists have studied it only a few times in the wild. It is interesting because it uses its fangs in an unusual way.1

Kaj je?
Its diet is not well studied. Snakes of its genus have been found with small rodents, birds, lizards, frogs, locusts and white ants in their stomachs or mouths. It stabs prey from the side, often underground, using one fang.1

Kako jo prepoznaš

  • Black in colour, with a lighter, flatter belly than its back1
  • Smooth body scales1
  • Flattened head with a blunt snout, covered in plates rather than small scales1
  • Short tail and a neck that is not well defined1
  • Average length about 45 cm, with some reaching 75 cm1

Pogosto zamenjujejo z: It is often confused with vipers (family Viperidae) because its long, hollow fangs look similar. Its head is covered in plates, while vipers have small scales on the head.1

Moč strupa

Ugrizi

Strup pride ven skozi strupnike ali zobe, ko ugrizne.

Kaj naredi njen strup, ko ugrizne ali piči?

Its venom is thick and slightly milky in appearance. It appears to be related to elapid venom rather than viper venom. In humans, the bite may first cause pain near the bite, followed by numbness and swelling in the same area.1

Kako nevarna je za ljudi?

Nevarnost za ljudi: Zelo nevarnaČloveka, ki ne dobi zdravljenja, lahko ubije.

Its venom is not considered very lethal to humans. However, there have been deaths, mainly among younger children.1

Kaj naredi, ko se prestraši?

It sits still with its nose pointing towards the ground, as if ready to dive into the soil, though this has been seen only a few times.1

Če ugrizne

  • 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

Dejstva

1

It has long, hollow fangs, but usually uses only one of them to stab its prey.1

2

When given several mice, it envenomated all of them before going back to eat them.1

3

Most of its prey burrows, so many of its strikes happen underground, where there is little room to move.1

Razbijalec mitov

Mit: It is a viper, because it has long hollow fangs like vipers.

Resnica: It is not closely related to vipers. Its fangs are similar, but it is more closely related to the families Colubridae and Elapidae, and its venom is unlike viper venom.1
