The villagers who were bitten by the king cobra have been killed, and there are still three children to raise at home
On April 8, media reported that the villager in Lingshui County, Hainan Province, who had been bitten by a king cobra, had been confirmed dead, and more details of the incident were also exposed.
The incident was first exposed by the villagers, who posted a video telling us that a one- or two-meter-long king cobra had been found in the local area. At the same time, a villager was also bitten by the snake. After discovering the incident, the villagers also quickly contacted the fire department. It can also be seen from the video that the firefighters are also working hard to catch the snake. As you can see from the video, this snake is indeed very large.
Of course, this snake should also be released after being caught, because the king cobra is a protected animal, and it can also be seen that this is a wild king cobra. It's really not easy to grow that big. However, more netizens are still worried about the safety of the bitten villager, after all, the snake is highly venomous.
Mr. Fa Xiaoyang, a villager who was not killed, told us that the villager who was bitten made a living by growing mangoes, and that there were still elderly people in the family and three children to raise. At that time, he probably didn't notice the snake, which was bitten directly on the knee, and the wound was purple and black. After calling an ambulance, the doctor said on the spot that the person was gone and dead.
The local village committee also told us that they are now thinking about how to help their family. After all, their family relies on him to make money alone, and it is really difficult for people to live without the elderly and children. And the youngest of the three children is just over a year old.
It is reported that the king cobra is a Class II rare protected animal in Yunnan Province and is vulnerable on the IUCN Red List. At the same time, the king cobra is extremely venomous, and the poisoned person can die within a few hours. However, king cobra venom has a high medical value, and it is also called "liquid gold", and the price is much more expensive than gold.
