它吃什么？

It eats other snails, such as cones and cowries. It uses a radula, a microscopic harpoon-like tooth on a proboscis (a tube at the front of the body), to inject venom that kills its prey.1

怎样认出它

Shell is yellowish brown with wavy brown lines.1
Triangular white spaces sit between the brown lines and form bands.1
The shell opening (aperture) is white.1
Typical adults have shells about 9 to 10 cm long, and the largest reach 15 cm.1

毒液之力

蜇伤

毒液通过蜇刺出来。

它的毒液会造成什么？

Its venom is a conotoxin, a mix of toxins injected through the harpoon-like radular tooth. The venom contains the neurotoxin RPRFamide, which attacks the nerves.1

它对人有多危险？

对人的危险: 非常危险不治疗可能会害死人。

Several human deaths have been attributed to this species. A 2004 report linked about 30 human deaths to cone snails as a group. Live animals should be handled carefully or not at all, and anyone handling one without protecting exposed skin is at risk.1

如果它蜇人

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。
蓝环章鱼或芋螺可能让人在清醒时停止呼吸：立刻呼救，并准备好做人工呼吸，直到救护车接手。

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。
如果被它蜇了：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

值得了解

事实

Its shell pattern is made by natural cellular automata, and it resembles Wolfram's rule 30 pattern.1

The pigment cells that make the pattern sit in a narrow band along the shell's lip, and each cell responds to its neighbours.1

Its proboscis can reach any part of its own shell.1

In Australia it is most common in northern Queensland, but sightings are spreading south into New South Wales as ocean temperatures warm with climate change.1

Its larvae drift in the current for about 16 days before settling on the bottom of the sea.1
