“An 80-year-old woman from Lennox Head, Australia, became a hero when she saved her dog from the grip of a carpet python. Driven by her dog’s whimpering, she rushed to the scene and found the python coiled around her pet. Despite being bitten by the snake three times during the incident, she managed to save her dog. The woman’s daughter shared this remarkable story online, calling her mother ‘incredible.’”
“A photo showed her inspecting her bitten arm while holding the snake by its tail. Australians praised her courage and resilience, affectionately calling her a ‘legend’ and a ‘fighter.’ Despite the well-intentioned advice from concerned citizens to see a doctor for the snake bites, the woman, motivated by her deep love for her dog, chose not to go to the hospital.”
“Although wildlife guidelines discourage interacting with or handling wild snakes without a permit, carpet pythons are known for their powerful bites. Experts acknowledged the urgency of the situation and praised the woman’s courage, recognizing that her actions were driven by her commitment to saving her beloved pet.”
“Although she technically violated wildlife guidelines, the woman’s difficult decision earned her recognition from a snake specialist, who praised her determination. Despite the potential risks, her top priority remained the safety of her precious dog.”
