Abstract

The increase in the Earth's temperature due to the inctrease in the amount of gases (carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane, water vapor, and chlor- ofluorocarbons) released into the atmosphere by humans is defined as global warming. Therefore, temperature increases in Winter, migration periods and climates change and thus species of fauna and animals which cannot tolerate such changes decrease. Life cycles of cold-blooded animals such as snakes living in warm areas vary. Cases of snake bites are frequently observed in the south and south-east of Turkey, especially in Summer. Therefore,we aimed to present a case which is not encountered in the literature except during Summer

Özet

İnsanlar tarafından atmosfere salınan gazların (karbondioksit, diazot monoksit,metan, su buharı, kloroflorokarbon) miktarlarının artması sonucundadünya yüzeyinde sıcaklığın artması küresel ısınma olarak tanımlanmaktadır.Bunun sonucunda kışın sıcaklıklar artmakta, hayvanların göçdönemleri ve iklimler değişmekte ve değişikliklere dayanamayan bitki vehayvan türleri de azalmaktadır. Sıcak bölgelerde yaşayan soğukkanlı hayvanlardanolan yılan gibi hayvanların da yaşam siklusu değişebilmektedir.Yılan ısırması vakaları ülkemizde özellikle yaz aylarında güney ve güneydoğubölgesinde sıkça rastlanan vaka grubudur. Biz de yaz ayları dışındaliteratürde rastlanmayan böyle bir vakayı sunmayı amaçladık.
