Amandla obuthi

Ukuluma

Ubuthi buphuma ngamazinyo aso obuthi noma ngamazinyo uma siluma.

Ubuthi baso benzani?

Its saliva is toxic, and it works quickly on small animals, so they are stopped from fighting back. It has little to no effect on humans. In the rare reported bites, slight tingling or temporary numbness at the bite site has been reported.1

Bites to people are rare, because the snake has to grab hold and chew its saliva into the skin, which most people will not allow. Serious allergic reactions are possible, as with any venomous animal, and most allergies are not known before a bite.1

Uma siluma

  • Geza inxeba lokulunywa, gcina umuntu ezolile bese uthola usizo lwezokwelapha. Ezinye izinhlobo (njenge-boomslang) zingabulala emahoreni amaningi kamuva.

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

Amaqiniso

1

Its tongue is thought to work like a cat's whiskers, helping it sense its way through branches and brush as it moves quickly.1

2

After biting, it coils around its prey. It does not squeeze the prey the way a constrictor does, but the coil helps to hold it.1

3

It is rear-fanged, with two larger but blunted, peg-like teeth at the upper back of the mouth. These teeth have grooves on the sides that deliver its saliva.1

4

After swallowing a meal, it usually moves to the highest point of a tree to rest.1

5

In captivity it readily takes mice, and some are large enough to eat rats, which makes it a prized choice among reptile collectors.1

Umqothuli wezinganekwane

Inganekwane: That the bite of this snake is dangerous to people.

Iqiniso: Its venom has little to no effect on humans. It is fast-acting on small animals, but bites to people are rare and usually cause only slight tingling or temporary numbness.1
