What is a sea snake?

Sea snake is a type of snake originally from the Indian and Pacific Oceans of North Australia. Sea snakes have flat tails that help in swimming and flaps on the nostrils that close when they are under the water surface. Depending on the species, there may be a number of different colors. There are approximately 31 different types of marine snake in existence, some of which include mangrove snakes, snake swamp snakes, sea snakes and sea crayfish. Adult sea snakes can be up to 6.6 feet (2 m) or small up to 20 inches (50 cm).

sea snakes require air to live and therefore usually occur in shallow waters. This makes it easier to come to the surface. Most sea snakes cannot survive for a long time on the ground, but sometimes they come to the coast for a short time. The mating takes place underwater with a man and a woman who alternates to the air. The male sea snake cannot separate from a woman until the mating is Completed.

I biteThe sea snake usually kills people, although they are very poisonous creatures. The venom of the sea snake is generally twice as strong than most deadly ground snakes such as rattlesnakes and copper heads, but have very small fangs and are usually not aggressive. Most sea snakes have a fang size between 5/64 to 5/32 inches long (2 to 4 mm). Occasionally, fatal attacks on sea snakes are reported, but most victims are fishermen who encountered their nests. These types of snakes normally try to avoid people, but may try to attack if they are harassed or captured.

If a person is bitten by a sea snake, it can take up to 30 minutes before the aim to feel the effects. The pain in the bite of the limb, muscle pain and the airway harassment usually report after the attack, although some people do not leave the disease at all. Anti-venommil would be immediately given to anyone who experiences severe pain from bite, but is usually not necessary unless there is any bad effects.
