Dumeril's coral snake is a venomous snake with bands of red, black and white. It lives in forests in northern South America and southeastern Central America, often near water. Its bright bands are a warning that it is dangerous.1

It prefers forest, especially near water, from near sea level up to 2,133 m (6,998 ft) above sea level. It is terrestrial and semi-fossorial, meaning it spends much of its time on the ground and partly underground.1

Micrurus dumerilii has a potent venom. In a laboratory, milked venom yielded 5–7 mg (dry weight), which is about equal to the estimated lethal dose of 4–6 mg for an adult human.1

E kotsi hakae ho batho?

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

Its venom is described as potent. The estimated lethal dose for an adult human is about the same as the amount of venom one snake yielded when milked in a laboratory.1
