West African banded cobra
咬伤The West African banded cobra is a large, venomous snake that lives in the savannas and woodlands of West Africa. It is a member of the cobra genus Naja. Scientists only recently recognised it as its own species, separate from the forest cobra.1

怎样认出它
- Brownish black or black on its upper body1
- Has 3 to 8 broad, cream-coloured crossbands across the body1
- Each cream band is partly divided by a narrow black crossband1
- Has 19 scale rows around the middle of the body1
- Has 211 to 226 ventral (belly) scales and 67 to 73 subcaudal (under-tail) scales1
常被误认为: It was once thought to be the same animal as the forest cobra (Naja melanoleuca). The West African banded cobra differs in having 3 to 8 broad, semi-divided light bands across the front part of its body.1

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

事实
The longest recorded West African banded cobra measured 223 cm.1
For a long time it was thought to be the same species as the forest cobra, until differences in its shape and genes showed it is a separate species.1
Its name reflects the broad, pale bands across its body, which set it apart from the forest cobra.1
