In an extraordinary incident in eastern Thailand, a woman shocked hospital staff by arriving with the 3-metre-long king cobra that had bitten her. Supin Wanphen was foraging for mushrooms in Sa Kaeo's Watthana Nakhon district on April 19 when the snake bit her, leaving a severe wound on her left leg.

 

A Facebook post celebrating Supin's bravery described her astonishing response to the attack. Despite the danger, she managed to kill the cobra with her own hands and bring it along when seeking medical help. This remarkable display of courage quickly became a viral sensation online.

 

 

 

Supin's bravery didn't just stop at subduing the deadly serpent; she sought medical attention promptly, which proved crucial. Her quick thinking and decisive actions meant she was able to receive the necessary treatment and is now safely out of ICU.

 

The incident highlights not only the potential dangers of encountering wildlife but also the resilience of those living in regions where such encounters are more common. Supin's story serves as a reminder of the unpredictable nature of the wild and the importance of immediate medical attention in cases of venomous bites.

Seen a couple in the rice fields, but even scarier are the dozens of tracks of the Pythons going from lake to lake.....never seen one though.
