它的毒液会造成什么?
The venom is made of many different toxins. Several of them act on sodium channels and potassium channels, which control signals in nerve and muscle cells. Some of these toxins have been studied for pain relief, seizures and other medical uses.1
它对人有多危险?
对人的危险: 严重被蜇了要去看医生。死亡非常罕见。The British National Centre for Reptile Welfare describes its sting as medically significant and potentially life threatening, but says an average adult would just have a really bad day.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。
- 如果被它蜇了: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
