Matilda's horned viper
Matilda's horned viper is a tree-dwelling snake that lives only in the forests of Tanzania. It has bony horn-like points above its eyes, and it was only recorded by scientists in 2011. Its exact location is kept secret to protect it from the illegal pet trade.1
Jinsi ya kumtambua
- It has two to three enlarged, horn-like structures above each eye.1
- It is an arboreal forest viper, so it lives in trees and bushes.1
- It can grow to a total length of 64.3 cm, which is large for a viper of its kind.1
Mara nyingi huchanganywa na: It looks most like the Usambara bush viper (Atheris ceratophora), since both have horn-like structures above the eyes. Matilda's horned viper is larger, and the largest recorded Usambara bush viper measured 51.0 cm.1
Nguvu ya sumu

Ana hatari gani kwa watu?
Hatari kwa watu: MbayaKuumwa kunahitaji daktari. Vifo ni nadra sana.
Akiuma
- Mweke mtu bila kutikisika na mtulivu, weka kiungo kilichoumwa usawa wa moyo, ondoa pete na vitu vinavyobana, na umpeleke hospitali haraka.
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
