You make it seem like a steven king movie!
It is never fun to be snake bit.
Copperheads bite many people yearly.
most don't get any special treatment.
some bites a finger or tissue might be removed.
Far from the most horrific snake bites.
how about the guy that stepped on a gaboon viper in his yard in africa.
Now thats horrific!
This woman might have truly been horrified don't get me wrong.
But the facts are copperheads are low on the DEATH-O-METER.

Here is a great link a the site with the I guess its a dangerousness index meter.
compare a copper to the black
and so on its a great site.
