Banded krait
The banded krait is a venomous snake with black and yellow bands around its body. It lives across much of Asia, from India through Southeast Asia to southern China. It matters because its venom is strongly neurotoxic, which means it attacks the nerves, and it can be lethal to people.1

The venom mainly contains neurotoxins, which attack the nerves. The major effects include vomiting, abdominal pain, diarrhoea and dizziness. Severe envenomation can cause respiratory failure, and death may occur through suffocation. The venom can also damage the kidneys if injected.1

Contact with humans is rare, and defensive bites are thought to result in very low envenomation. At night the snake is more active and is widely considered more dangerous.1

Òtítọ́
The banded krait's venom yield is the highest of any krait because of its size, even though its toxicity is lower than that of many other kraits.1
It is the longest krait with a distinguishable gold and black pattern.1
It is generally considered timid and docile, and it is shy and rarely seen.1
Banded kraits are mainly nocturnal, and during the day they lie up in grass, pits or drains.1
It is believed to become adult in its third year, at a length of about 914 mm.1
