Red-naped snake
The red-naped snake is a small venomous snake with a bright red or orange patch on the back of its neck. It lives in many parts of eastern and central Australia, mostly hunting at night. It is special because it looks very like the young eastern brown snake, which is far more dangerous.1

Indlela yokusibona
- Small, slim snake, reaching a maximum length of about 45 cm1
- Shiny black head and neck, with small black eyes and a head that looks partly flattened1
- A white streak on the upper lip1
- A well-defined orange or red patch on the back of the neck, shaped like a diamond, crescent or oval1
- Red-brown body with dark edges to the scales, so the pattern looks like a net; the belly is cream or white1
Ivamise ukudidaniswa ne: The red-naped snake looks similar to the juvenile eastern brown snake. The eastern brown snake has a lighter band between its dark head and neck. Behaviour is the easiest difference: the eastern brown snake is active in the day, while the red-naped snake is nocturnal and is rarely seen unless its shelter is disturbed.1
Amandla obuthi
Ubuthi buphuma ngamazinyo aso obuthi noma ngamazinyo uma siluma.
Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?
Ingozi ebantwini: KuncaneNjengokuhlatshwa yinyosi noma ngaphansi. Cishe akunangozi ebantwini.The red-naped snake is venomous, but it is considered harmless to humans. It can bite, and will do so if it is provoked enough.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

Amaqiniso
It kills its prey with both venom and constriction, squeezing the prey in its coils.1
Its look is so close to the young eastern brown snake that behaviour is often the only way to tell them apart.1
Its neck patch is one of its clearest markings: an orange or red shape on an otherwise black head and neck.1
It is nocturnal, so it is rarely seen unless its hiding place is disturbed.1
