<p>A two-year-old in Turkey got her lick back against a snake who tried her! The toddler bit the reptile to death after it attacked her first and sank its fangs into her lip. According to <em>Newsweek, </em>the toddler is from the village of Kantar near Bingol. The incident <a href="https://www.newsweek.com/toddler-snake-bite-kills-snake-1733553">reportedly occurred</a> on August 10.</p>
<p>Neighbors found the toddler after hearing her screams coming from a backyard area. When the neighbors reached the toddler, she had a bite mark on her lip. But, the little girl also had a 20-inch snake clenched between her teeth.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;Our neighbors have told me that the snake was in the hand of my child; she was playing with it, and then it bit her,&#8221; Mehmet Ercan, the toddler&#8217;s father, told media outlets. But, he added, &#8220;Then she has bitten <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/exclusive-college-grad-student-under-investigation-over-racy-photo-shoot-tsr-investigates/">the snake</a> back as a reaction.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>It&#8217;s unclear how soon after the bite, the snake died, but the toddler was taken to the hospital for treatment. The toddler&#8217;s father was reportedly at work when the snake attack and revenge went down. Doctors treated the girl at the Bingol Maternity and Children&#8217;s Hospital. Medical professionals supervised the child for 24 hours and determined she was recovering well.</p>
<h5 style="text-align: center;"><strong>Experts Say Snakebites Can Be Deadly If Untreated </strong></h5>
<p><em>Newsweek </em>reports that the National Poison Information Center (NPIC) collected 550 <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/lil-pump-gets-bitten-by-a-snake-on-the-set-of-his-music-video/">snake bite</a> reports in Turkey between 1995 and 2004. It&#8217;s unknown which species of snake bit the child. However, given her recovery, the reptile likely wasn&#8217;t venomous.</p>
<p>But, according to the University of Rochester Medical Center, even snakebites from a nonvenomous snake <a href="https://www.urmc.rochester.edu/encyclopedia/content.aspx?contenttypeid=90&;contentid=p02849">can lead to an infection</a> or allergic reaction. An untreated bite can also lead to damage to the skin or tissue where the bite took place, internal bleeding, organ damage, shock, and in extreme cases, death.</p>
<p>At this time, it&#8217;s unclear if this is the child&#8217;s first time playing with snakes or if she was being directly supervised during the attack.</p>
