Bale Mountains adder
咬伤The Bale Mountains adder is a viper that is still little known to science. It is named after the Harenna Forest in the Oromia Region of Ethiopia, where it was first found. Scientists have recorded only a handful of sightings, so much about it is still unclear.1

怎样认出它
- Its back is mostly black, with slim, pale cream markings.1
- It has a pale 'cross bar' marking on the top of the head, just behind the eyes.1
- It has no horns between its nostrils.1
- Adults seen so far have been about 66 cm to 1 m long.1
常被误认为: It is often confused with Bitis parviocula, which also has no nostril horns and a pale cross bar behind the eyes. Bitis harenna has frontal scales with facets and lacks a subhorizontal ridge on the prootic bone, which separates it from B. parviocula. It is darker than B. rhinoceros and B. gabonica, which have paler heads.1

它对人有多危险?
对人的危险: 严重被咬了要去看医生。死亡非常罕见。
注意安全
- 永远不要摸、抓或逗弄野生动物,即使是很小的,即使它看起来在睡觉或已经死了。
- 给它留出空间。如果遇到它,保持冷静,慢慢后退,让它走自己的路。
- 如果被它咬了:保持冷静,保持不动,拨打你的急救电话(112、000、911)或尽快去医院。记住它长什么样,拍张照片会有帮助。
它不是冲着你来的。它用毒液捕猎或保护自己,而且它更愿意躲起来。 更多安全知识
