"When I realised that a snake had bit me," Miya explained to the BBC matter-of-factly, "I went home to get a torch and saw that it was a cobra. So I bit it to death."

Accounts seem to vary on why Miya opted for a tit-for-tat countermeasure. "A snake charmer told me that if a snake bites you, bite it until it is dead and nothing will happen to you," Miya told the BBC; but Reuters reports the decision to chomp the cobra was made in the heat of the moment:

"I could have killed it with a stick, but bit it with my teeth instead because I was angry."

” ... but bit it with my teeth instead because I was angry.”

Maybe he was hungry too? Hunger can also make a man quite angry.

AN ELEGY ON THE DEATH OF A MAD DOG

by: Oliver Goldsmith (1728-1774)

GOOD people all, of every sort, Give ear unto my song; And if you find it wondrous short,—It cannot hold you long.

In Islington there was a man, Of whom the world might say That still a godly race he ran,—Whene’er he went to pray.

A kind and gentle heart he had, To comfort friends and foes; The naked every day he clad,—When he put on his clothes.

And in that town a dog was found, As many dogs there be, Both mongrel, puppy, whelp, and hound, And curs of low degree.

The dog and man at first were friends; But when a pique began, The dog, to gain some private ends, Went mad, and bit the man.

Around from all the neighboring streets, The wondering neighbors ran, And swore the dog had lost his wits To bite so good a man.

The wound it seemed both sore and sad To every Christian eye; And while they swore the dog was mad They swore the man would die.

But soon a wonder came to light, That showed the rogues they lied; The man recovered of the bite, The dog it was that died.

Wait a minute! That’s my cousin Mike holding up a broken fan belt from his Chevy! The only snake he ever fought was that pants snake he always seemed to be wrestling with in his sleeping bag when we camped out in the back yard.
