Integrating snake distribution, abundance and expert‐derived behavioural traits predicts snakebite risk

Journal of Applied Ecology, Volume 59, Issue 2, Page 611-623, February 2022., 2022
We show that snakebite risk is explained by abundance, aggressiveness and envenoming severity of the snake species most frequently involved in envenoming cases. Incorporating causality via ecological information of key snake species is critical for snakebite risk mapping, helping to tailor preventive measures for dominant snake species and deploying ...
