怎样认出它

  • Generally 1 to 1.5 metres long1
  • Colour varies a great deal, from coppery mid-brown to yellowish, reddish, grey or black1
  • The copper-coloured head that gives it its common name is not always present1

常被误认为: It is often called the copperhead, but it is not closely related to the American copperhead (Agkistrodon contortrix).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
