The western green mamba is a long, thin and highly venomous snake. It lives in forests, thickets and woodland along the coast of West Africa, and it spends most of its time high in the trees. Its venom is fast-acting, so any bite needs urgent medical care.1

West Africa, from Gambia and southern Senegal east to Benin, including Guinea-Bissau, Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana and Togo1

Sida loo aqoonsado

  • Bright green, fading to yellow or orange towards the tail.1
  • Scales have prominent black edges, which give a networked pattern.1
  • Long, slender body with a long tapering tail.1
  • Long, thin head with medium-sized eyes that have round pupils and yellowish brown irises.1
  • Typical adult length is 1.4 to 2.1 metres.1

Inta badan lagu khaldaa: It can be mistaken for green bushsnakes of the genus Philothamnus, and for the boomslang. Counting scales is a key way to identify snakes to species level, and the western green mamba has 13 rows of dorsal scales at midbody, fewer than any similar species.1

Awoodda sunta

Qaniin

Suntu waxay ka soo baxdaa ilkihiisa sunta ama ilkihiisa marka uu qaniino.

Maxay samaysaa suntiisa (qaniin ama mudid)?

Its venom contains neurotoxins (which attack the nerves), cardiotoxins (which harm the heart) and fasciculins. Symptoms usually start within about 15 minutes and can include pain and swelling, headache, drowsiness, difficulty breathing, vertigo, low blood pressure and paralysis. Without treatment, the victim can die when paralysis stops the breathing muscles, and a bite can be fatal in as little as 30 minutes.1

Intee buu dadka khatar ugu yahay?

Khatarta dadka: DilaMid ka mid ah xayawaanka ugu khatarta badan adduunka.

Bites to people are uncommon because the snake is rarely encountered and conflict with humans is low compared with some other species in the region. However, many recorded bites have been fatal, and the World Health Organization lists it as a snake of medical importance in western sub-Saharan Africa.1

War wanaagsan: dhakhaatiirtu waxay leeyihiin daawo (antivenom) ama daaweyn tan loogu talagalay.1

Muxuu sameeyaa marka uu baqo?

When threatened, it can flatten its neck into a slight hood, and it usually retreats if it is encountered.1

Haddii uu qaniino

  • Apply a pressure bandage, keep the victim as still as possible and take them quickly to a hospital or clinic. An arterial tourniquet may help because of the venom's neurotoxic effects. Antivenom is the main treatment, and tetanus toxoid is sometimes given.1
  • Qofka ka dhig mid aan dhaqaaqin oo deggan, ka saar faraantiyada iyo waxyaabaha adag, si degdeg ahna u geey isbitaalka: daawada sunta (antivenom) ayaa ah daaweynta.

Badbaado

  • Weligaa ha taaban, ha qaban, hana ku ciyaarin xayawaan duurjoog ah, xitaa mid yar, xitaa haddii uu u muuqdo inuu hurdo ama dhintay.
  • Meel u bannee. Haddii aad mid la kulanto, deg, tartiib dib ugu noqo oo u daa inuu jidkiisa maro.
  • Haddii mid ku qaniino: deg, ha dhaqaaqin, wac lambarka gurmadka degdegga ah (112, 000, 911) ama si degdeg ah u tag isbitaalka. Xusuuso sida uu u egyahay, sawir ayaa caawiya.

Xaqiiqooyin

1

Its venom is among the fastest-acting of any snake, and symptoms can appear within about 15 minutes of a bite.1

2

Its venom is more potent than that of the eastern green mamba, and much less potent than that of the black mamba.1

3

It is mostly active during the day and spends most of its time in the forest canopy, sometimes at considerable height.1

4

The oldest recorded specimen was a captive snake that lived 18.7 years.1

5

It is one of the more expensive African snake species, and it is collected and sold internationally.1

Beeniye-jabiye
