Wife calls 911, states that husband was in the basement, changing a light bulb, tipped over and fell off on the step ladder, through a glass enclosure. Inside the glass enclosure is an eight foot ball python.
She heard it all happen, but because of health conditions can not climb downstairs to give an accurate report to dispatch.
Dispatch asks if there are any venomous snakes in the house, she says, "No."
Eight foot python, eight foot python.... maybe like this?
Well, that don't look too scary, right?
So you and your partner proceed with caution down the stairs. You see a man laying recovery position, bleeding scalp laceration from the glass. He's moaning a little, then you notice the 8 foot snake making its way up the patients chest, then beginning to constrict around the patient's neck..
You call Dispatch, asking for a reptile/herpetologist specialist, they are 45 minutes out, and Steve Irwin has been dead for a long time.
As you look at the patient, you can see the snake make a single coil around your patient's neck.. Oh, shoot, he's got a small radial arterial bleed on on his upper arm, looks like a defensive would when he fell through the glass..
What's your first course of action? Then, your second course of action.
