becomes dangerous due to the concentrated venom
The consequences from the bite
of a viper in the heat can be difficult, but it is associated with a
higher concentration of the poison due to the fact that the snake is
dehydrated, while at the genetic level, a more poisonous snakes do not
get, says the chief expert on snakes of the Moscow Zoo, Dmitry Vasiliev.According to the zoo, to the
professionals who seek advice in recent years, more frequent meetings,
not only with snakes, but the severity of snake venom poisoning."Snake venom poisoning are serious, but poisonous snakes
did not change at the genetic level, it can not be traced. In extreme
heat the poison may be more concentrated if the snakes are dehydrated," -
Vasilyev said during an online conference hosted by RIA Novosti.Be carefulThe expert warned that the current very
difficult to get professional help after being bitten by a snake - to
provide its own is not always possible, and the serum in most hospitals
are not available."You can get a bite if you rummage hand, where
nothing is visible, but most often a snake bite when it come. So if you
know what this place a lot of snakes, of course, have to be careful," -
said Vasilyev.According to him, under
threat, especially gardeners, whose sites are located in marshy areas or
on the edges that are preferred for the snakes.The "snake room" can be fairly well
localized, Vasilyev said. According
to him, the snake does not have the habit to crawl away from the place
where the winter. "The females crawl over distances up to
800 meters away, while males migrate up to 11 kilometers," he said.Viper - beautifulThe expert explained that, in the
Moscow region is found only two species of snakes - it's ordinary and
common viper, of which only the viper is dangerous to humans. It is believed that
there is still a dangerous kind - smooth snake, but it almost does not
occur in the Moscow region, it is often confused with the viper, which
may have a different color."Viper is capable of forming nearly seven color
variations: there are black, blue, green snake. Vipers are generally
very beautiful," - said Vassilev.He said
that the south - in the Kursk, Voronezh and Lipetsk regions, the Volga
region and Togliatti - is also found Nikolsky's viper. It
is always black, and their venom poisoning is difficult because it
contains kardiotoksin that affects the heart.Snake places"Traditionally, we have a snake in
some places is Savelovskaya direction Konakovo, Verbilki. Also in the
Shatura direction in the Dmitrovsky district. Between platforms," 119
km "and" pace "I had to catch for 30 minutes and 40 pieces of vipers, it
was eight years old ago, "- said Vasilyev.According to him, in a
westerly direction - for example, in Mozhaisk area, especially near
rivers, is not more common viper, and snakes.A census of snakes traditionally spent
Institute for Nature Conservation (VNIIPrirody) and units related to the
system Roszdravohoty, but with the 1993 census of poisonous snakes in
the suburbs is not conducted.
