The dugite is a highly venomous snake found in southern Western Australia and in remote coastal parts of western South Australia. Its venom is potentially one of the most lethal in the world, so it is a snake to treat with great respect. It is common in and around Perth, where it often shelters near buildings.1

Dugites live in coastal dunes, heathlands, shrublands and woodlands, and they also do well in degraded places such as golf courses, industrial areas and open farmland. In the Perth metropolitan area, they are one of the most common snakes found next to buildings, where they shelter under concrete slabs, fibro sheeting and roofing tin.1

Paano ito makikilala

  • Coloured grey, green or brown, but the colours vary widely between individuals, so colour alone is not a reliable guide.1
  • Black scales may be scattered over the body.1
  • Relatively large scales with a semi-glossy look.1
  • The head is rather small and not clearly separate from the neck.1
  • Long and slender body, typically about 1.5 metres in total length.1

Ano ang epekto ng kamandag nito?

The venom has coagulopathic and procoagulant effects, meaning it disturbs the way blood clots. It is potentially one of the most lethal venoms in the world. In a 2011 case, a boy bitten by a dugite was temporarily paralysed, showing that the venom can affect the nerves and muscles as well as the blood.1

Dugites are potentially lethal. They generally avoid biting people, but the risk of encounters rises during the mating season in October and November. The last recorded human death attributed to a dugite was in August 2015 in South Fremantle. In 2011 a seven-year-old boy was bitten and temporarily paralysed, and he made a full recovery.1

Magandang balita: may gamot (antivenom) o gamutan ang mga doktor para dito.1

Ano ang ginagawa nito kapag natatakot?

When disturbed they are very shy and often slither away, but they will defend themselves if cornered.1

Kung kumagat ito

  • Prompt medical attention is essential after a bite. In a December 2020 case, a three-year-old girl bitten by a snake believed to be a dugite was quickly immobilised by her grandmother, who wrapped her legs in pressure bandages. She was treated with antivenom in hospital and made a full recovery.1
  • Pressure immobilisation: balutin nang mahigpit ng elastic bandage ang kagat at pataas sa buong braso o binti, lagyan ng splint, at panatilihing ganap na hindi gumagalaw ang tao hanggang dumating ang tulong.
  • Huwag hugasan ang kagat: masusuri ng ospital ang kamandag na naiwan sa balat para mapili ang tamang antivenom.

Laging tawagan muna ang numero pang-emergency (112, 000, 911). Ito ay pangkalahatang gabay sa pangunang lunas, hindi payong medikal. Mga batayan ng pangunang lunas

Mag-ingat

  • Huwag kailanman hawakan, hulihin o asarin ang ligaw na hayop, kahit maliit, at kahit mukha itong tulog o patay.
  • Bigyan ito ng espasyo. Kung makasalubong ka ng isa, manatiling kalmado, dahan-dahang umatras at hayaan itong umalis.
  • Kung kagatin ka ng isa: manatiling kalmado, huwag gumalaw, tawagan ang numero pang-emergency (112, 000, 911) o pumunta agad sa ospital. Tandaan ang itsura nito, makakatulong ang litrato.

Hindi ka nito hinahabol. Ginagamit nito ang kamandag para manghuli ng pagkain o ipagtanggol ang sarili, at mas gusto pa nitong magtago. Higit pa tungkol sa pag-iingat
