Health & Emergency Information for Visitors in Pantanal
Scorpion and Snake Accidents in Pantanal:
🐍 Health & Safety in the Pantanal: Accidents with Wild and Venomous Animals
The Pantanal is one of the largest tropical wetlands in the world and home to extraordinary biodiversity. While this makes it a unique destination for wildlife observation and ecotourism, it also means visitors may encounter venomous or wild animals, particularly in remote or rural areas.
Understanding potential risks helps ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
🦂 Scorpion Stings
Scorpions are present in parts of Mato Grosso do Sul and surrounding regions. Stings may cause:
- Immediate pain and burning sensation
- Swelling and redness
- In more serious cases: sweating, nausea, vomiting, or neurological symptoms
Most stings are mild, but children and older adults may be at higher risk of complications.
Prevention tips:
- Shake shoes and clothing before wearing
- Avoid leaving clothes on the floor
- Use closed shoes, especially at night
- Keep luggage elevated in lodges or rural accommodations
🐍 Snake Bites
The Pantanal ecosystem includes several snake species, some of which are venomous (such as pit vipers and coral snakes). Snake bites are uncommon but possible during:
- Hiking or walking in tall grass
- Fishing activities
- Farm or ranch visits
- Exploring wetlands or forest edges
If a snake bite occurs:
- Remain calm and limit movement
- Do NOT apply tourniquets
- Do NOT attempt to cut or suck the wound
- Seek medical care immediately
Antivenom treatment is available in Brazil and is most effective when administered promptly.
🕷️ Other Wildlife Considerations
Outdoor activities may also involve exposure to:
- Spider bites
- Insect-borne illnesses
- Animal scratches or bites
Proper footwear, insect repellent, long sleeves during dusk/dawn, and cautious behavior significantly reduce risk.
🩺 Medical Support While in the Pantanal

- Initial medical assessment
- Guidance after animal stings or bites
- Monitoring symptoms
- Deciding when urgent in-person care is required
