And I was putting the snakes away one night, and I was in a hurry. Instead of waiting for the ticket seller to close down his operation and come in and help me get the 18 footer in her box for the night, I tried to do it myself. It was a big female. She struck at me and bit me in the leg. Their teeth are fairly effective, and she punctured my left, left leg, pants leg. Her teeth went through and cut my skin pretty full. I knelt down and tried to get her foot or her teeth untangled from my pants leg. That was a mistake because she curled around my body and pinned my arms down to my sides.
