Snake bites man, he retaliates with two fierce bites, kills the reptile
In an unbelievable incident, an Indian man – identified as Santosh Lohar hailing from the state of Bihar – dug his teeth in a snake after it bit him while he was sleeping.
The man, who was a resident of Nawada city, was sleeping at his base camp after completing the entire day’s work of placing railway lines when he was attacked by the snake.
The man, who believed in the superstition that biting the snake helps in neutralising the venom, decided to do the same and bit the snake twice, as reported by the NDTV.
The 35-year-old man’s unconventional response led to the death of the snake, however, he was also admitted to the hospital.
The man was rushed to the Rajauli subdivision hospital where he was treated by the doctors. Lohar soon recovered and the doctors discharged him the next day.
Earlier, a man in Fatehpur City of Indian state of Uttar Pradesh, lived after getting five snake bites in a span of two months which left the doctors astonished.
He was bitten by the snake on June 2, June 10, and June 17 and twice in July. However, the man’s condition was stable and the doctors had called it a “strange” case.
