The venom is toxic and deadly to other reptiles and amphibians, and it slows and eventually kills the prey. The venom is not considered dangerous to humans. Some bites cause systemic symptoms such as paralysis and bleeding, along with localised pain and swelling that can range from moderate to severe.1

Dintlha

It has the largest eyes of any Australian snake, which helps it hunt successfully during the day.1

Snakes often gather in communities, and some communal nests contain 500 to 600 eggs.1

Young snakes often constrict their prey, but adults rarely do so and usually use venom instead.1

Although it is mainly active by day, it also forages at night for nocturnal prey such as geckos and frogs.1

In winter it slows down through brumation and moves mainly to find sun and water.1

Tlhamane: The yellow-faced whip snake is a dangerous snake to people because it is venomous.

Nnete: Its venom is deadly to lizards, frogs and other reptiles, but it is not considered dangerous to humans. Its bites are still painful and medical care should be sought.1
