Girl (12) swings large snake in the air like a lasso - to save her guinea pig. Australian schoolgirl has become famous after CCTV at her Queensland home captured her heroic efforts.
Rosie Wightman, 12, is seen in the silent video footage cleaning her pet's cage in her garden before spotting the rodent in the clutches of a snake hidden in the bushes. After she spun the snake around, the reptile loosened its grip on MaxiBon's neck and instead grabbed his leg with its jaws.
