首页

Sea kraits forage on reefs in the sea. They return to land to digest their prey, mate, shed their skin and lay their eggs. Because they move between water and land, they often shelter from direct sunlight to cope with rapid temperature changes.1

怎样认出它

The upper lip is dark brown.1
There are 19 rows of scales at the middle of the body.1
The large belly scales are one-third to more than one-half the width of the body.1
Males grow to about 91 cm in total length, and females to about 107 cm.1
The tail is about 11 cm long.1

常被误认为： It is often confused with other Laticauda sea kraits. The 19 rows of body scales and the dark brown upper lip can be used to tell it apart from them.1

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

This snake is known to warm up in the burrows of wedge-tailed shearwater seabirds.1

A single animal was found in Devonport, New Zealand, in 2011 and again in January 2025, far outside its usual range. It died shortly after being taken to Kelly Tarlton's Sea Life Aquarium.1

Moving between water and land exposes it to rapid temperature changes, so it often seeks shade from direct sunlight.1
