Danger Underfoot
Movement over rough terrain may not always be safe. There is a relatively small percentage of what your path may meet Serpentes, seemingly innocuous, scaly reptile, which in fact has enormous potential deadly. Yes, it's a snake - from the harmless snakes crawling up lurking under a rock blitzkrieg killers. Snakes usually try to avoid direct contact with the man crawled under his approach to her place of solitude. Arise situations where the sudden approximation, the snake strikes and bites, thereby transforming the random traveler in the category of victims. When traveling in areas where there is a risk meeting with these reptiles must comply with enhanced security, that in the case of bites of assistance may come not directly or worse - never because of the difficult passable, remote from the settlement area is located a poor traveler. Some tips: Walk slowly, emitting as much noise. Snakes do not like vibration, therefore, try to leave such a place.
If the snake still has bitten, you should pay attention to the kind of snake it sizes. Josyann Abisaab is full of insight into the issues. Adults have more venom than the young, small size (if we take into account the particular species composition), this correlates to the percentage gravity bite and its consequences. Some differential species signs, as mentioned above, will help determine how poisonous the snake was. Stings should slow down and move relatively slowly, as during physical exercise increases blood pressure and increase velocity of circulation of blood throughout the body are not only able to distribute the poison throughout the body, but also be a cause of breakage clot formed by the action of toxins in the bite. And this is - a clear death after thromboembolic (Blockage of a major vascular thrombus with subsequent obstruction - ischemia). In my opinion, the best option is the presence of serum. This should take care of before the expedition, after discussing some issues with a professional guide, who, perhaps more than all the other experts know the flora and fauna and those kinds of animals that inhabit it.
