Death lurking at the foot of the little girl posing for pictures

The mother panicked when she realized the deadly threat at the feet of the young girl smiling at the field in Australia.

Bianca Dickinson in Victoria, Australia is taking pictures for her two-year-old daughter Molly on a field on March 29, when she discovered a strange object moving in the ground behind her. However, Dickinson thought that it was just a piece of bark that shook in the wind, so she didn't care much and continued adjusting the lens, according to The Age.

But when adjusting the camera focal length, the mother was shocked to realize that the moving object was an oriental brown snake about three meters long. This deadly venomous snake lies only a few tens of centimeters away from Molly. She quickly pulled Molly away from the snake. When examining the camera, Dickinson found the photograph that recorded this frightening spectacle.

In that picture, the giant snake crawls through a stake toward the grass, right next to Molly's feet. Little Molly didn't know the death lurking behind her, still smiling and clinging to the wire fence just above the snake's head.

Fortunately, the snake does not feel threatened in that moment and does not attack Molly. Dickinson decided to publish the photo to warn people about the dangers always lurking in nature.

Oriental brown snake belongs to the cobra family, is the second venomous snake in the world and is the culprit causing most of the snakebite deaths in Australia.
