The crown cone is a sea snail that lives in warm western Atlantic waters. It is a predator, and its sting can injure or kill people, so it is one to treat with great care. It is known to science for its unusually complex venom.1

Nguvu ya sumu

Kudungwa

Sumu hutoka kupitia mdungo.

Sumu yake hufanya nini?

Its venom contains a conotoxin called reg2a, which is made of 16 amino acids. It is the most potent known blocker of acetylcholine receptors in the vertebrate brain, a receptor type with a very high affinity for nicotine. The venom also blocks calcium receptors in sensory nerve cells, which stops nerve impulses from travelling along the nerve.1

Ana hatari gani kwa watu?

The crown cone is capable of stinging and injuring or killing humans. Live snails should be handled carefully or not at all.1

Akidunga

Kubana na kutotikisa: funga bandeji nyororo kwa nguvu juu ya jeraha kisha mguu au mkono mzima, weka banzi, na umweke mtu bila kutikisika kabisa hadi msaada ufike.
Pweza mwenye pete za bluu au konokono koni anaweza kusimamisha pumzi ya mtu akiwa bado ana fahamu: omba msaada na uwe tayari kumpa pumzi ya uokoaji hadi gari la wagonjwa lifike.

Daima piga namba ya dharura kwanza (112, 000, 911). Huu ni mwongozo wa jumla wa huduma ya kwanza, si ushauri wa kitabibu. Misingi ya huduma ya kwanza

Kaa salama

Kamwe usimguse, kumkamata wala kumchokoza mnyama wa porini, hata akiwa mdogo, na hata akionekana amelala au amekufa.
Mpe nafasi. Ukikutana naye, tulia, rudi nyuma polepole na umwache aende zake.
Akikudunga: tulia, usitikisike, piga namba yako ya dharura (112, 000, 911) au nenda hospitali haraka. Kumbuka alivyoonekana, picha husaidia.

Hakuwindi wewe. Hutumia sumu yake kukamata chakula au kujilinda, na hupendelea zaidi kujificha. Zaidi kuhusu kukaa salama

Ni hesabu tu kwenye kivinjari chako. Hakuna kinachohifadhiwa wala kutumwa popote.

Ana kasi gani?

Farasi wa bahari takriban km 0.0015 kwa saa (0 mph)

Crown cone takriban km 0.01 kwa saa (0.01 mph)

inafaa kujua

Ukweli

The crown cone has more different conotoxins than any other cone snail species.1

Its conotoxin reg2a may be of medical importance in research on nicotine addiction.1

The venom acts on the nervous system by blocking calcium receptors in sensory nerve cells.1
