Black forest cobra
咬伤The black forest cobra is a venomous snake from West Africa. It was only recognised as its own species fairly recently, after scientists found clear differences from the forest cobra. It lives in the Upper Guinea forests, from Togo to Guinea-Bissau.1

怎样认出它
- Adults are uniformly brownish black or black on the back, sometimes with faint, lighter markings.1
- Juveniles have much more pronounced light speckling or banded patterns than adults.1
- The throat is light, followed by 2 to 3 distinct dark bands on the belly. The rest of the underside is black.1
- The lips and underside of the head are cream, with black edges along the upper lip scales.1
- It has 17 midbody dorsal scale rows, and 203 to 221 ventral scales.1
常被误认为: It was long confused with the forest cobra (Naja melanoleuca). The black forest cobra usually has 17 midbody dorsal scale rows instead of 19, fewer dark belly bands, and a tendency to become darker with age.1
毒液之力
它咬的时候,毒液通过毒牙或牙齿出来。
它对人有多危险?
对人的危险: 非常危险不治疗可能会害死人。
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

事实
Adults often become darker with age, a process called ontogenetic melanism.1
Adults can grow to a maximum recorded length of 264 cm.1
Scientists long thought the black forest cobra was the same animal as the forest cobra, until morphological and genetic differences showed it is a separate species.1
