The banded krait is a venomous snake with black and yellow bands around its body. It lives across much of Asia, from India through Southeast Asia to southern China. It matters because its venom is strongly neurotoxic, which means it attacks the nerves, and it can be lethal to people.1

Banded kraits live in forests, farmland and open plains, often near water. They use termite mounds and rodent holes, and they often live near villages because of the rodents and water there.1

The banded krait feeds mainly on other snakes, but also eats fish, frogs, skinks and snake eggs. It swallows its prey head first, after the venom has made the prey inactive.1

The venom mainly contains neurotoxins, which attack the nerves. The major effects include vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhoea and dizziness. Severe envenomation can cause respiratory failure, and death may occur through suffocation. The venom can also damage the kidneys if injected.1

E kotsi hakae ho batho?

Kotsi ho batho: E kotsi haholoE ka bolaya motho ya sa fumaneng kalafo.

A clinical toxicology study gives an untreated mortality rate of 1 to 10 per cent. Contact with humans is rare, and defensive bites are thought to result in very low envenomation. At night the snake is more active and is widely considered more dangerous.1

When harassed, it usually hides its head under its coils and does not generally attempt to bite.1
