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

kuhle ukwazi

Amaqiniso

It has long, hollow fangs, but usually uses only one of them to stab its prey.1

When given several mice, it envenomated all of them before going back to eat them.1

Most of its prey burrows, so many of its strikes happen underground, where there is little room to move.1

Umqothuli wezinganekwane

Inganekwane: It is a viper, because it has long hollow fangs like vipers.

Iqiniso: It is not closely related to vipers. Its fangs are similar, but it is more closely related to the families Colubridae and Elapidae, and its venom is unlike viper venom.1
