Its venom is neurotoxic, meaning it attacks the nerves. It causes neuromuscular block, which stops nerves from signalling muscles properly. Paralysis of the breathing muscles can lead to death from respiratory arrest.1

Coral snakes cause about 1% of accidents in Central and South America. The venom is highly potent. In laboratory milking, the average yield was 10 to 12 mg, about twice the estimated lethal dose of 6 to 8 mg for an adult human.1

Xibaar

1

The largest venom yield recorded in the laboratory was 65 mg, enough to kill 5 to 6 people.1

2

Some of its toxins act before the nerve signal reaches the muscle. They make nerves release too much acetylcholine, a chemical messenger, and then block the signal to the muscle.1

3

Its venom contains many toxin families, including phospholipase A2 and three-finger toxins.1

4

Adult females can lay up to 15 eggs.1

Tasukatu léeb

Xalaat bu juum: Coral snakes are aggressive and attack people.

Dëgg: This snake is not aggressive towards humans.1
