A brave two-year-old girl killed a snake in revenge after it bit her lip. The young toddler instead sunk her teeth into the reptile in retaliation, killing it.
TODDLER FOUND WITH SNAKE IN HER HANDS
Earlier this week, the toddler was playing in the backyard of her family home in the village of Kantar, Bingöl in Turkey.
Her neighbours suddenly heard the two-year-old girl scream on Wednesday.
Rushing to check on what the emergency could be, the young girl, identified by her initials S.E, was found with a 50cm snake gripped by small teeth. A bite mark on her lower lip was immediately noticed.
After the snake was killed, the neighbours started performing first aid on the toddler. Paramedics were immediately called, Daily Mail reported.

Meanwhile, an eight-year-old boy suffered a swelling five times the normal size of his hand after being bitten by an adder.
Jake Closier, was on a day trip to the beach when he was attacked by the venomous snake. He was with his parents, Kenny, 33 and Sophie, 32 at the popular Hemsby beach in Norfolk, England.

But his mother initially thought the bite came from a harmless grass snake. It was only when she noticed Jake’s hand going completely hard that she realised it was something serious.
