Nguvu ya sumu

Kuumwa

Sumu hutoka kupitia meno yake ya sumu au meno anapouma.

Sumu yake hufanya nini?

The snake is mildly venomous, and a typical bite is not dangerous to humans.1

Ana hatari gani kwa watu?

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

A typical bite is not dangerous to humans.1

Akiuma

  • 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.
  • Usioshe mahali alipoumwa: hospitali inaweza kupima sumu iliyobaki kwenye ngozi ili kuchagua dawa sahihi ya kuzuia sumu.

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

1

It is often found living in the abandoned nests of stick-ants.1

2

Females give birth to live young instead of laying eggs. This is called ovoviviparity, where the eggs hatch inside the mother's body.1

3

Despite its venom, the snake is considered mildly venomous and its typical bite is not dangerous to people.1

4

Its scientific genus, Rhinoplocephalus, has only this one species, so it is the sole member of its genus.1
