How To Survive A Snake Attack by Bhaelarkush(m): 8:24pm On Oct 02, 2016
With the way killing of snakes hit front page a lot lately,i figured out sooner or later someone is gonna be a victim of a snake bite or worse;python dinner.

So here is what to do when you are attacked by a snake.

First,we will deal with the poisonous ones like 'em cobras,mambas etc.

1. When you are bitten by a poisonous snake, first thing to do is move away from the snake to prevent further bites. You don't want to get multiple streams of venom running in your veins.

2. Try to remain as calm as possible. This stops rapid flow of blood thru the body

3. Remove any tight clothing or jewelry around the area. Also don't attempt to suck the venom or suture the bitten area

4. Try to put the affected area below the heart level and tie a rope to around the area to prevent venom from spreading.

5. Alert people around you. Tell them to clean and dress the affected area before taking you to the hospital

6.Based on my Nigerian mentality,u had better start calling on any God u worship for that might just be your last moments on earth


This next precautions are for constrictors such as pythons,boas

1.First of all, your chances of escaping the snake's grip are extremely slim.

2.When the snake tries to squeeze u,bite its tail and if u got any sharp objects on you, cut the hell out of the snake's body

3. Shout for help with all your strength in your body cos pythons or boas don't smile with their food.

4. Beg God for forgiveness if all the above didn't work.

So stay clear of snakes..if u don't want to be a scapegoat.

lala..pls as normal snake killing threads make front page..push this one there too..You might just be saving a life
