Forest Cobra snake bites little girl – Ucles vs Africa

By | April 22, 2016

The reality of a snake bite is that when there are no resources and knowledge of species and a snakes identity is not well understood.

It can be hard to see the true effects and impacts of human interaction with venomous snake species. This is an account of my personal attempt to educate and bring awareness to the African community members about venomous snake bite prevention and first aid treatment within a village.

The little girl was attacked by a dangerous snake called a Forest Cobra and bit – luckily only her finger was amputated. The venom of this cobra bite result in severe neurotoxicity. This venomous species of snake can be highly dangerous due to the quantity of venom it can inject in a single bite or strike and its aggressive nature when defending. Death can occur rapidly, within 30 to 120 minutes in severe cases of snake envenomation.
The last snake is a Black Mamba, one of the world’s deadliest snakes, and my attempt at teaching how to minimize the snakes venom damage to a person. Some viewers may find this footage distressing, but this is the reality of dangerous snake bites in rural Africa.

This is opening up a fire ant mound to see how many of these little in size ants are in there. They come pouring out in attack mode if disturbed they will sting you and burns the reason they call them fire ants. These I spotted off the Neuse River Trail in Clayton NC around Mile Marker 28.5.

    I used to kill them when I was a kid, I would use fire crackers and pretend it was artillery or a hair spray and lighter and pretend it was a dragon.

    These mounds are everywhere where I live, and when I walk by one I get a running start and punt those SOBs like I I'm trying to win a superbowl with a long field goal. I hate fire ants and it's just very satisfying to do so. And with the speed and force there are never any stuck to my shoe that I need to worry about crawling up into my pants.
