A Chinese man who nursed a dying snake back to health claims it saved his family by raising the alarm when their house was on fire.

Yu Feng, of Fushun, in Liaoning province, found the dying black snake outside his home, reports the Liaosheng Evening Post.

"I treated it with herbal medicines, and in 20 days it recovered," he said.

He took the snake to a nearby mountain more than a mile away to release it back into the wild - but the next morning it was back at his house.

No doubt he'd been treating himself quite heavily with "special" herbal medicines!

Yu explained: "I was asleep when suddenly I felt something cold on my face. I opened my eyes and it was Long Long.

Either that or his room mate was turkey slapping him! I still think drugs may have been involved here!
