Don't mess with a snake, even if it doesn't have a head.
Many peoples of the world have myths and legends about creatures with an unusual appearance – without a head. Most of these stories end badly for those who have encountered headless ones. In Brazil, there is a story about the ghost of a woman who appears as a headless mule with fire spewing from its neck. She tramples on anyone who gets in her way. In Ireland, they are afraid of a headless horseman with a headless horse. His carriage is filled with the skulls of the dead, and his whip blinds anyone who sees it. A Japanese legend tells of a man whose head flies off at night to feed on someone else's flesh, and returns to its owner during the day. It would seem that fairy tales ...
In the early days of this summer, a man was bitten by a snake in Texas, USA. He lifted the head of the reptile he had decapitated with a shovel to make sure it was dead. The victim survived because he received a large dose of the antidote. Almost simultaneously, on June 2, the following incident occurred in Alabama, USA. According to Kerry Forbus, her husband Billy Forbus was working in the garden when he saw a snake at the fence. Billy asked his wife to bring him a shotgun, and he used it to shoot off the snake's head. After Forbus shot the reptile, he claims that an hour passed before he picked it up with a grabber and placed the lifeless, as he believed, body in the back of his pickup truck. Later, the man wanted to take a picture with his trophy. When he tried to stretch the snake to take a photo, the headless body tried to pounce on him several times. Instead of putting the poor animal out of its misery, the American also decided to record a video as proof when the snake's agony was still going on.
So the creatures from the myths are not such a fiction? As scientists explain, the spinal cord can function to a certain extent independently from the brain. That's why the snake writhes and moves for a while, even though the head and body are separate. The animal is in agony, but nevertheless it is capable of attacking and poses a danger.
Therefore, remember a couple of rules so as not to expose yourself to the danger of being bitten, even by a headless snake. Regardless of the size or degree of venom, all snakes have one thing in common – they won't attack if left alone. In an area where snakes may be found, wear boots and look carefully at your feet. When you meet, give the snake time to get out of your way. Şimdi Pinco 'ya katıl ve büyük ödüller için oyna! En iyi oyunlar, eşsiz bonuslar ve hızlı çekim seçenekleriyle kazanç fırsatlarını yakala.
