The Chocoan lancehead is a venomous pitviper, a snake that injects venom with its bite. It lives in the wet forests of western Colombia, Panama, Ecuador and northern Peru. It matters because it can be large enough to deliver a fatal bite.1

Based on its size, it is probably capable of a fatal bite. It is not known to be common anywhere. One bite victim was treated in Medellín for acute renal failure, which means sudden kidney failure.1

E kotsi hakae ho batho?

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

Local experts rank it as one of the most dangerous snakes in the regions where it lives, alongside the common lancehead (Bothrops atrox). Its size means a bite may be fatal.1

Dintlha
