Artlista: Reptiler
Artlistan på den här sidan innehåller reptilarter som förekommer i Östafrika. Flertalet av arterna saknar vedertagna svenska namn.
Färgkoder nedan:
Grönt artnamn – Giftig art med ej dödligt gift
Blått artnamn – Giftig art, men giftets verkan (på människor) är ej känd
Rött artnamn – Giftig art med dödligt gift, eller stor art som kan jaga människor
Rädd för ormar?
Trots att det finns många ormarter i Östafrika är det ovanligt att få se dem. Med få undantag drar de sig undan om de blir störda.
Majoriteten av ormarterna i Östafrika är ofarliga, men det finns giftormar, så du bör alltid hålla gott avstånd om du får se en orm som du inte kan identifiera som ofarlig.
Farliga reptiler
Giftormar och nilkrokodiler är de enda farliga reptilerna i östra Afrika. Alla ödlor
och sköldpaddor är ofarliga (de kan dock bitas om de blir trängda), liksom
de flesta ormar. Vissa ormar som förvisso är giftiga är i realiteten ganska
ofarliga för oss människor, eftersom giftet är svagt eller ormen mycket skygg.
De farligaste ormarna är pufformen, som till skillnad från de flesta andra ormar inte drar sig undan när du närmar dig, utan förlitar sig på kamouflage, och den svarta mamban, som är aggressiv och huggvillig. Båda är mycket giftiga.
Artlista i fickformat
