I am just reading this article about a 7 year old girl who was bitten by a Timber Rattlesnake, ended up unconscious for two hours and her father had to perform CPR on her.
The article is a perfect example of why more people should have a look at the Living with Wildlife website and consider doing the online snake awareness course.
There are free snake bite first aid treatment instructions that you can download and print off to use as a reference and the online snake awareness course provides detailed instructions on first aid to administer in the event of snake bite.
It was great to read that the young victim is now recovering - we hope you get better soon.
