Quoted By:
I am from Australia, and what you said about the ACE bandage is bang on I think anyone with a snake bite should react that exact same way, the lady teaching my first-aid course told me a story about a farmer who got bitten by a brown snake.
>farmer lives in the middle of fucking nowhere
>farmer working
>farmer gets bitten by brown snake and the snake pisses off
>wraps self in bandage (the method you described)
>calls apprentice or son whoever he was to get him a beer because it will stop his panicking and make him relax (yes it thins blood but apparently in this situation his panicking/stress was thinning it more)
>literally sits down on the spot and doesn't move an inch for hours whilst he waits for anti-venom
>gets fixed up with literally no damage
the nurse then stated if you get bitten and wrap it properly you could wait a full 24hours before obtaining anti-venom (direct quote)
I guess that applies to all snakes right? maybe with hemotoxin a really small area would be greatly damaged.
>picrel, I have actually been chased by a baby one of these little fuckers
