Chokwadi

1

Its tail has light-sensitive cells in the skin, which help it detect light and stay fully hidden inside coral holes during the day.1

2

Males sometimes approach divers, possibly because they mistake the divers for female sea snakes.1

3

Prawn trawls are one of its greatest threats, and up to 50% of olive sea snakes caught in trawls are killed.1

4

Males can reach sexual maturity in their third year, while females do not mature until their fourth or fifth year.1

Kuputsa ngano

Ngano: Sea snakes regularly attack divers.

Chokwadi: Attacks on divers are rare. Males that approach divers are likely mistaking them for females.1
