When Snakes Surprise: A Mother’s Terrifying Encounter

It can be rather frightening to come upon unexpected critters in our surroundings, and the fear increases when it’s a poisonous snake! Just ask the mother of a girl who experienced a terrifying event in her backyard on the day of her daughter’s seventh-grade graduation.

She was attempting to take a photo of her daughter sitting next to a tree when she sensed something chilly. Her daughter had been smiling for the camera when a snake had slithered out of the tree! Thankfully, the mother and daughter were not hurt, despite being startled.

“The snake was terrifying, so I took two pictures when I saw it. The mother said, “I was remarkably calm when I asked her to back off, but I think she read right into my expression.”

For anyone, coming across a snake can be a terrifying experience. It’s important to keep your cool and avoid panicking. Keep in mind that, depending on the species, snakes might be dangerous. So, what ought one to do in the event of encountering a snake?

 

When confronted with a snake up close, slowly back away until you are at a safe distance. By keeping an eye on it from a distance, you can make sure that those in your vicinity may also stay safe.
