Young snakes often have whitish blotches on the underside of the head.1

Mara nyingi huchanganywa na: The Malayan krait (Bungarus candidus) is easily confused with this species. A 2017 genetic study found that many museum specimens labelled as many-banded kraits in China were actually Malayan kraits.1

Nguvu ya sumu

Kuumwa

Sumu hutoka kupitia meno yake ya sumu au meno anapouma.

Sumu yake hufanya nini?

Its venom contains neurotoxins, which attack the nerves and the connections between nerves and muscles. Local effects are usually mild, with slight itching and numbness rather than serious swelling or pain. Symptoms usually start one to six hours after a bite and can include drooping eyelids, double vision, weakness, tongue paralysis, loss of voice and difficulty breathing.1

Ana hatari gani kwa watu?

Hatari kwa watu: AnauaMmoja wa wanyama hatari zaidi duniani.

Estimated death rates from untreated bites vary between studies, from 25–35% to 70–100%. In a serious bite, breathing can stop and lead to death. In 2001, a juvenile bit the herpetologist Joe Slowinski in Myanmar and he died 29 hours later.1

Hufanya nini akiogopa?

It is generally timid and placid, but it is more defensive at night and thrashes about when handled.1

Akiuma

Mweke mtu bila kutikisika na mtulivu, ondoa pete na vitu vinavyobana, na umpeleke hospitali haraka: dawa ya kuzuia sumu ndiyo tiba.

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.
Akikuuma: 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

Ukweli

Its venom is among the most potent of any land snake, based on lab tests on mice dating back to 1943.1

In 2001, a juvenile bite in Myanmar killed Joe Slowinski, which drew worldwide attention to the species.1

The snake that bit Slowinski was first thought to be this species, but it was later classified as a different species.1

It is active from April and retreats into hibernation in November.1

Kuvunja dhana potofu

Dhana potofu: American soldiers in the Vietnam War called it the "two-step snake", believing its venom could kill a person within two steps.

Ukweli: Its symptoms usually start one to six hours after a bite, and death can take much longer. The two-step belief is wrong, and a bite still needs urgent medical care.1
