One wrong step while walking through the woods almost cost this young woman her life.
NORTH PORT, Fla. - A Florida woman had to celebrate her 21st birthday in the hospital after a venomous snake bit her while she was on a hike.
Lynn was walking through the Myakkahatchee Creek Environmental Park in North Port when a snake bit her on the leg. She believes it was an eastern diamondback rattlesnake, which is venomous. Emergency officials got her off the trail, into an ambulance and then a helicopter to get her to the hospital. She barely made it there alive, and her family thought she wasn’t going to make it.
Lynn and Hunter celebrated her 21st birthday on May 24 in the intensive care unit. Those weren’t the plans they had before the snake bite, but now, they’re just happy Lynn is still alive.“Alligators and sharks are not the only dangers here in Florida. There are several venomous snakes and spiders out here,” Hunter said.
