它吃什么?

怎样认出它
- Bands of red, yellow and black rings run around its body.1
- The black rings are not grouped in threes.1
- Males have 23 to 24 black rings, and females have 26 to 28.1
- Its red rings have no black-tipped scales.1
- It is small for its genus. The longest measured specimen was 55.7 cm long, including the tail.1
常被误认为: Its colour pattern is very similar to that of Micrurus fulvius. The cloud forest coral snake can be told apart because its red rings have no black-tipped scales.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
