Peggy Jones, from Silsbee, was maneuvering her tractor across her backyard when she was suddenly thrust into the surreal confrontation with a snake and hawk. She said: "I was mowing on our property when out of the sky, out of the clear blue, a snake fell onto my arm." The snake, whose species remains unidentified, wrapped itself around her arm with a vice-like grip. She attempted to shake the snake loose, but it clung to her and even began striking her face, her glasses shielding her from potentially catastrophic bites. For all the latest on news, politics, sports, and showbiz from the USA, go to The Mirror US To make things worse, a hawk then swooped down from above and clawed at Peggy's arm, attempting to seize the snake. She said:"I just kept saying, 'Help me, Jesus, Help me, Jesus,'" "Finally he got the snake and took off with the snake, and I looked down and I was covered in blood, my arm was pretty tore up," she told KPRC, adding she also had "venom" all over the right lens of her glasses. Startling images showed Peggy's arm marred by cuts, blood, and bruises. Her husband rushed her to a nearby hospital, where the medical staff at first didn't believe what happened. Although Peggy escaped the incident without life-threatening injuries, but she said the ordeal took an emotional toll. She said she believes the hawk dropped the snake on her and that she believes the hawk swooping down ultimately saved her life. She said: "I think that was God's way of letting me live because I couldn't figure out a way — the snake was not letting go of my arm," she said, adding: "I just feel thankful that I'm alive."
