Common cat snake
The common cat snake is a rear-fanged snake found across South Asia. It is active at night and hides during the day, often in houses. It is an excellent climber.1

怎样认出它
- Yellowish-olive or pale grey along the back1
- White or black-edged zigzag markings on the back, which may be connected1
- A distinct pale Y-shaped mark on top of the head, sometimes black-edged1
- White or tan belly, which can have a series of small brown spots along each side1
- Total length around 91 cm, including a tail of about 18 cm1
常被误认为: It strongly resembles the venomous Echis carinatus in colour and shape. In India, the two species have almost identical geographic ranges.1

它的毒液会造成什么?

它对人有多危险?
对人的危险: 轻微像被蜜蜂蜇一下或更轻。对人基本无害。Its venom is described as mild. It is common in many areas and often found in houses, but it is rarely seen because it is nocturnal.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
