对人的危险: 很疼可能真的很疼,但几乎从不严重。

The spur-winged goose is a large waterbird from Sub-Saharan Africa, and on average it is the world's largest goose. Some populations are poisonous to eat: birds that feed on many blister beetles carry a poison called cantharidin in their body tissue.1

毒力

吃了有毒

只有被什么东西吃掉时才有害。

它的毒会造成什么?

This goose is not venomous. Its poison, cantharidin, is held in the bird's tissue and comes from blister beetles it eats. Eating the cooked goose poisons the person who eats it.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。

Only populations whose diet includes large amounts of blister beetles are poisonous. A dose of 10 mg of cantharidin can kill a human. The risk is to people who eat the cooked goose.1

它害怕时会做什么?

Its alarm call is a soft bubbling "cherwit" when it takes flight or feels alarmed.1

如果有人碰了或吃了它

  • 如果有人吃了它,或吃后出现症状:立刻拨打急救电话或中毒急救中心。

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。
  • 如果你碰了或吃了它:不要揉眼睛或嘴巴,洗手并就医。

它不是冲着你来的。它的毒只是为了不被吃掉。 更多安全知识
