The New Caledonian sea krait is a venomous sea snake that lives in the waters around New Caledonia, a group of islands in the Pacific Ocean. It spends time both in the sea and on land near the shore. It is special because it is found almost nowhere else.1

Ukuba siyaluma

Ukubopha ngoxinzelelo nokunqanda ukushukuma (pressure immobilisation): songa ibhandeji eqinileyo enwebekayo phezu kwendawo elunyiweyo uze unyuke ngelungu lonke, uliqinise ngesiplinti, kwaye ugcine umntu engashukumi kwaphela de kufike uncedo.
Khupha umntu emanzini kwaye umse esibhedlele ngokukhawuleza.

Soloko utsalela inombolo kaxakeka kuqala (112, 000, 911). Esi sisikhokelo soncedo lokuqala ngokubanzi, asilocebiso lwezonyango. Iziseko zoncedo lokuqala

Hlala ukhuselekile

Ungaze uchukumise, ubambe okanye uqhule isilwanyana sasendle, nokuba sincinci, kwaye nokuba sibonakala silele okanye sifile.
Sinike indawo. Ukuba udibana naso, hlala uzolile, buyela umva kancinci kwaye usiyeke sihambe ngendlela yaso.
Ukuba siyakuluma: hlala uzolile, musa ukushukuma, tsalela inombolo kaxakeka (112, 000, 911) okanye uye esibhedlele ngokukhawuleza. Khumbula ukuba sasikhangeleka njani, ifoto iyanceda.

Asikuzingeli. Sisebenzisa ityhefu yaso ukubamba ukutya okanye ukuzikhusela, kwaye singakhetha ukuzimela. Okungakumbi malunga nokuhlala ukhuselekile

Iinyaniso

It has been recorded outside its home range only once: a single specimen was found in New Zealand in 1925.1

Its diet is mainly eel-like fishes, and the lipspot moray makes up about half of what it eats.1

Females grow much larger than males. The largest female recorded was 109 cm long, while the largest male was 81.7 cm.1

Its limited range is thought to be because sea kraits of the genus Laticauda spend time on land or in shallow water, which gives them few chances to be carried away by ocean currents.1
