A suspected poisonous snake appeared in a children's play area in a high-end hotel in Jiuzhaigou. Fortunately, no bites were caused by the person, but this incident still left many parents with lingering fear. It was a relaxing moment to enjoy the holiday with your children, but it was terrifying to encounter potential dangers in the carefully decorated amusement area of the hotel. Recently, there have been many incidents of venomous snakes appearing and biting people across the country. This hotel snake disease reminds people that even in seemingly safe places, you cannot relax your vigilance against snake risks.
There are two speculations about why venomous snakes appear in the hotel children's area: on the one hand, as the ecological environment continues to improve, the range of activities of wild animals such as snakes continues to expand, and they may follow vegetation or gaps to enter the hotel area; on the other hand, children's play areas are usually arranged in bright colors and many decorations, dense green plants, cartoon-shaped ornaments, etc., which are not only loved by children, but also provide a hidden place for venomous snakes, increasing the difficulty of discovery. This hidden danger is by no means a small matter - a tourist unfortunately died when he was traveling in Sanya because he was bitten by a snake in the grass and failed to treat it in time, which is enough to show the fatal risk of snake disaster.
For tourists who travel to natural scenic spots, it is crucial to take good self-protection. First of all, you should pay attention to your outfit. Even in summer, try to avoid wearing sandals and shorts to reduce skin exposure. If you encounter snakes outdoors, do not panic or provoke them actively, and you can slowly drive away the items such as wooden sticks. Once you are unfortunately bitten, the key is to retain the characteristics of the snake as soon as possible: either take a clear photo, or remember the details of its patterns, colors, etc., so as to quickly judge the snake species and inject corresponding anti-venom serum to gain time, which is directly related to the treatment effect.
While tourists take good care of themselves, the hotel needs to assume the main responsibility. As a place to provide accommodation services, especially high-end hotels with children's activity areas, a complete safety inspection mechanism should be established, and the vegetation and corners of the park should be checked regularly to promptly remove hidden dangers of snakes and insects; at the same time, warning signs can be set up in conspicuous locations and equipped with emergency items such as snake medicine. Only when the hotel tightens the "safety string" and implements preventive measures can tourists be truly at ease and avoid the recurrence of terrifying incidents like "experience of poisonous snakes in children's areas".
