The Texas lyre snake is a medium-sized, mildly venomous snake that lives in deserts and rocky land in the south-western United States and northern Mexico. It is secretive and hides in rock crevices during the day, so it is often hard to spot.1

怎样认出它

  • Brown, tan or grey, with 17 to 24 dark brown blotches down the back1
  • Large eyes with vertical pupils1
  • Medium-sized, reaching about 1 metre in total length, including the tail1
  • No V-shaped mark on the head, unlike other lyre snakes1

常被误认为： Other lyre snakes in the genus Trimorphodon have a V-shaped pattern on the head that looks like a lyre. This subspecies does not have that mark.1

如果它咬人

  • 清洗咬伤处，让人保持冷静并就医。有些种类（比如非洲树蛇）可能几小时后才致命。

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
