Kako nevarna je za ljudi?

No fatalities from its bite have been reported. Its venom is potent, so any bite should be taken seriously.1

Kaj naredi, ko se prestraši?

When startled or threatened, it hides its head under its body, raises its tail and curls it tightly. It can also forcibly release gas from its cloaca with a loud noise, a behaviour known as cloacal popping, which smells very unpleasant.1

Če ugrizne

  • Poškodovanca drži pri miru in ga pomirjaj ter ga hitro odpelji v bolnišnico, tudi če je ugriz videti majhen: simptomi se lahko začnejo šele 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
