Gaano ito kapanganib sa tao?

Panganib sa tao: NapakapanganibKaya nitong pumatay ng taong hindi nagamot.

Fewer bites are recorded from this snake than from cobras and vipers, because it is less aggressive and tends to avoid people. Bites usually happen when it is accidentally grabbed. Most sea snake bites happen when fishermen try to untangle the snakes from their nets.1

Ano ang ginagawa nito kapag natatakot?

It is not aggressive and only attacks when it feels threatened, and its tail moves and looks like its head, which can fool predators.1
