Hula nini?

It is an ambush predator. It waits until a small fish or shrimp comes close, then moves in slowly with its pectoral fins and opens its mouth suddenly to suck the prey in. It eats small crustaceans, fishes and larvae.1

Ana hatari gani kwa watu?

Hatari kwa watu: InaumaInaweza kuuma sana, lakini karibu kamwe si jambo zito.

Hufanya nini akiogopa?

It relies on camouflage, resembling a dead leaf and making gentle sideways movements with its pelvic area so it looks like a drifting inert object.1

Miiba yake ikikuchoma

Weka jeraha kwenye maji ya moto, moto kiasi ambacho mtu anaweza kuvumilia bila kuungua (pima kwanza kwa mkono wako), kwa dakika 30 hadi 90. Tafuta msaada wa kitabibu, hasa kwa samaki-jiwe na taa.

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.
Miiba yake ikikuchoma: 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
