Black mamba dey learn from where inland taipan or hook-nose sea snake

But the speed, venom toxicityand aggression of the mamba makes them a far more dangerous snake to encounter...You will rather handle a taipan than a mamba trust me.

Yankee101:


First aid, bodily fluids, stabilization etc can be done b4 moving him to a bigger hospital

That will buy time. But eventually with the huge dose of venom this snake injects, vital organs will soon fail. The care should be hollistic. Beginning with educating those mostly at risk. Like farmers. And what first aid to give before even reaching the hospital.

Snake bites still hold lots of mystic. At times that a human turned into a snake to kill people. Especially because of high death rate from ignorance and poor or none available medical care. One re-enforces the other.

lepasharon:


Ikr. If snakes are native to a certain area..the hospitals around should defo have anti-venom.

I know nigeria is bad, but not that bad

Who gets the snakes for devenoming to the hospitals?? The same snakes they kill and eat? I wouldn't put my money on Nigerian hospitals having all the antivenin of most native snakes...

but this village folk are supposed to be knowledgeable enough to know that that hand should have been tied immediately, pending when they get a solution. na wah o

Chai dem no get BLACKSTONE ?

Which kind native doctor be that ?

Baroba:


A serious country will educate it's citizens on how to deal with these snakes, develop anti venoms..Hate it or love it, the key issue here is we will continue to have more bites from vipers littered all over W . Africa no matter how many you kill...

The corruptNigerian government will not even bother because it cost research and money to develop anti venom..People have been bitten by far more dangerous snakes ( black mamba) in Southern African countries than the Gaboon and they survived thanks to availability of anti venoms in those countries..

May his soul RIP..

This is what most people don't know..that one has to educate even the supposedly educated ones is exasperating..you can't kill all the venomous snakes in Nigeria..what then happens when someone close to you gets bitten and the hospital closest to you has no antivenin for that particular snake's bite?? You're screwed!

AkpaMgbor:

They will never learn..you see them gulping concoction in the name of 'agbo'....how it was mixed you don't know, in what environment it was mixed you don't know...you don't even know the house of the seller..you just carry am drink..the orthodox drugs undergo a lot of research and testing before it is used on people...they have a name and reputation to protect..you can Sue them if something goes wrong..

Leave them they say it is appreciating your own when they take local drugs..instead of orthodox drugs.

But you can still be pro-American and take orthodox drugs

That's why I admire honey Badgers

They can get it from overseas, no?

You're not even sure yourself

Naughtysite:
Chai dem no get BLACKSTONE ?

Which kind native doctor be that ?

What will a black stone do on a bite delivered by a gaboon viper?? Imagine putting a hypodermic needle deep inside your muscle...what will a black stone do to a venom that deep?? That particular snake's fang is the longest of any snake...black stone won't do shyt.

lepasharon:

Lol get it from overseas? How many vials? Do you think all the snakes in Nigeria are also in overseas? There are native snakes only found in Nigeria..and you say hospitals will source for antivenin of snakes native to Nigeria outside..the sheer irony of such thoughts sef!

las las it will emd inside d POT

amaniro:
This one wey people dey die anyhow for Umuahia is everything alright?

Honeydenz:
Reminds me of 2016 when I was bitten by a snake...nearly died. Thinking of all I have been thru and still breathing, whoever say there's no God somewhere is a fat liar!?!

How was it like to be bitten by a snake, what is the exact snake that bit you?

Happy for you that you survived the experience.

Maranzano:


Someone just passed on as a result of snake bite and all your feeble mind can conceive is insults and no single sympathy. If you had not spoken, you would have been classified as wise.

I'm not bothered......in this part of the world your the most foolish when you speak the truth

that's just how it is

Bitten by a Viper one of the most venomous snakes on the planet and they took him to native doctor for herbal medicine, instead rushing him to hospital for anti venom.

Their ignorance killed the young man.

playing with neurotoxin.

William8908 you dropped ur sense there

SweetCunt97:
They should have tied the hand and cut it off to avoid spreading. Better to lose a hand than life. We need to be proactive in this country. Too many weak brains here.

some year ago the same snake bite my father while we were going to farm. what my father did was to cut the exact place the snake bite him and blood was gushing out that was how my father escaped death

SweetCunt97:
Think about it. Better than being dead. Heat up a machete very hot and plaster d fresh wound to stop bleeding before proceeding to d hospital.

I just told you your contribution was stupid and you still persist in airing it. Are you reta.rded or something ?

Metrixnews:
A middle aged man, Chidiebere Christopher Nwoke has lost his life after a dangerous snake bit him during bush clearing in Umuahia, the Abia State capital.

The late Mr Nwoke is a native of Umueke Ekerifeze Umuajata Olokoro in Umuahia south local government area of Abia state.

ABN TV gathered that this development has put the people of the community in a state of mourning as the young man was said to be full of life and hard working.

Our correspondent gathered that late Nwoke had gone to farm alongside his younger brother when the tragic incident happened.
He said Nwoke unknowingly inflicted a machete cut on a dangerous viper snake known as “AJUALA”.

In an effort to gather the cleared bush with his hands, the snake bit him on his left hand which resulted to the swelling of the hand.

However, he was rushed to an anti poison native doctor who gave him some herbal drugs to stabilize him.

He later passed on and has since been deposited in the mortuary.
