The broad-headed snake is a small to medium-sized venomous snake that lives only in the Sydney Basin in New South Wales, Australia. It is black with yellow markings and is rare today, so it is protected. It is easy to mistake for a young diamond python.1

In the colder months, adults and young shelter in crevices in sandstone outcrops on exposed cliff edges. In spring, adult males and non-breeding females move to nearby woodlands and forests, and they use hollow trees in summer. Its rocky habitat is being lost to urbanisation and to rock removal for landscaping.1

Black, with numerous irregular yellow markings arranged in narrow cross-bands.1
Small to medium-sized, averaging 60 cm in total length including the tail, though some records show lengths up to 90 cm.1

Ivamise ukudidaniswa ne: The young diamond python is superficially very similar and lives in the same habitat, so inexperienced people can easily confuse the two. In 2023, a man was bitten in the Southern Highlands of NSW after capturing a broad-headed snake he believed was a diamond python.1

It is venomous and can bite. In 2023, a man was bitten after capturing one he believed was a diamond python to show his children.1

Uma siluma

Ukubopha ngokucindezela nokuvimba ukunyakaza (pressure immobilisation): bopha ibhandeshi elinwebekayo eliqinile phezu kwenxeba bese ukhuphuka nesitho sonke, usiqinise nge-splint, futhi ugcine umuntu engashukumi nhlobo kuze kufike usizo.
Ungaligezi inxeba lokulunywa: izibhedlela zingahlola ubuthi obusele esikhumbeni ukuze zikhethe i-antivenom efanele.

Njalo shayela kuqala inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911). Lokhu kuyiseluleko sosizo lokuqala esijwayelekile, akusona iseluleko sezokwelapha. Izisekelo zosizo lokuqala

Hlala uphephile

Ungalokothi uthinte, ubambe noma ugcone isilwane sasendle, ngisho noma sincane, futhi ngisho noma sibukeka silele noma sifile.
Sinike isikhala. Uma uhlangana naso, hlala uzolile, uhlehle kancane bese usiyeka sihambe ngendlela yaso.
Uma sikuluma: hlala uzolile, ungashukumi, shayela inombolo yezimo eziphuthumayo (112, 000, 911) noma uye esibhedlela ngokushesha. Khumbula ukuthi besibukeka kanjani, isithombe siyasiza.

Asikuzingeli wena. Sisebenzisa ubuthi baso ukuze sibambe ukudla noma ukuzivikela, futhi singancamela ukucasha. Okwengeziwe mayelana nokuhlala uphephile
