怎样认出它

The back is grey-brown to dark brown.1
The belly is orange to pink, with a line of black spots down the middle.1
A pale yellow-brown stripe starts at the snout and sweeps back along both sides of the head, trailing down the neck. This is the 'crown'.1
The dorsal scales are in 15 rows at mid-body.1
Adults average about 50 cm in total length, including the tail.1

常被误认为： Other crowned snakes, C. krefftii and C. harriettae, have a crown that joins at the back of the head. In the golden-crowned snake the stripe does not join and instead runs down the neck.1

咬伤

它咬的时候，毒液通过毒牙或牙齿出来。

它的毒液会造成什么？

Its venom is described as mild. Bites from larger individuals may pose a health risk.1

它对人有多危险？

对人的危险: 很疼可能真的很疼，但几乎从不严重。

It is only mildly venomous. It is more likely to bluff than to bite, and bites from larger snakes may pose a health risk.1

它害怕时会做什么？

When threatened, it rears into an S-shape and shows its bright orange belly, mock biting to intimidate.1

如果它咬人

加压固定法：用有弹性的绷带紧紧缠住咬伤处，再缠满整条肢体，用夹板固定，让人完全不动，直到救援到来。
不要清洗咬伤处：医院可以检测皮肤上残留的毒液，以选择正确的抗毒血清。

一定先拨打你的急救电话（112、000、911）。这里是一般急救指导，不是医疗建议。急救基础

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
