She explained that she brought it to inform the medical staff exactly what kind of snake it was.
According to local media such as Bangkok Insight, Supin Wan-Pen, 47, who lives in Wattananakon, Sakaeo, Thailand, encountered a 4-meter-long king cobra while collecting wild mushrooms from a nearby reservoir with his relatives on the morning of the 19th.
Supin kicked and blocked the attacking cobra in the neck, but he was eventually bitten on his left leg.
Instead of panicking, she grabbed the snake's neck and threw it to the ground before stomping to death.
Arriving at the hospital in two hours with the help of relatives around her, she had a dead cobra in her hand.
In response, she said she brought it because she thought the medical staff needed to know exactly what type of snake it was when receiving treatment.
Medical staff explained that although it was about two hours after the snake bite, her consciousness was clear, and that she was able to administer the correct antidote because she brought the snake.
"I think I survived miraculously because I kept calm and didn't give up," she said.
Meanwhile, the king cobra is the longest venomous viper in the world, and its body length ranges from 3-5.5 m to 5.85 m.
It weighs 9-10 kilograms, and its head is the size of an adult man's fist. It is also known to be able to stand up to a height of up to 1.5 meters to match people's eye level.
