Title: Extremely lucky girl
Post by: MiloMorai on October 22, 2022, 08:07:44 AM
An 11-year-old girl is 'extremely lucky' to be alive after she filmed herself unknowingly holding one of the world's most venomous snakes.

The young girl had been on a walk in Newport, in Melbourne's south-west, when she came across the eastern brown snake - which is responsible for the most snakebite fatalities in Australia.

She filmed the reptile entwined around her fingers, completely unaware of how dangerous the 'snakey' was.

The child mistakenly thought the reptile was a harmless garter snake and had no hesitation in picking it up.

But the snake was wise enough not to bite an Australian.  Eastern brown snakes will survive.
