A Nepalese farmer who was bitten by a venomous snake took revenge by sinking his teeth into the reptile and killing it.
Mohamed Salmo Miya was farming near his village southeast of Kathmandu when he encountered the deadly common cobra, said district police chief Uma Prasad Chatrubedi.

'A farmer in Bardanga village has killed a white cobra with his teeth out of anger,' he said.

'The snake bit him while he was working in his paddy field on Tuesday evening and the man chased it and killed it.'
Miya was treated at a local clinic and is recovering at home.

Nepal has a wide variety of poisonous and non-venomous snakes, which are particularly active during the summer monsoon, including the Indian rock python, which can grow up to 33 feet long, and the deadly king cobra.
Conservative estimates suggest that there are 20,000 cases of snake bites in Nepal a year, almost all in the Terai southern plains, causing around 1,000 deaths.

The six-and-a-half-foot common cobra, which accounts for the majority of bites, is worshipped by Hindus in some parts of Nepal.
