Barmymoo:
I had to look twice too; she's definitely been bitten.
GarandMarine:
It looks pretty clear that the snake has embedded it's fangs into her arm to me. Not that a snake bites like that. However a Northern Copperhead's a good bet so... ER, with a quickness.
Safety Tip of the Day: Don't fuck with snakes unless you know what you're doing and can 100% identify the snake as harmless.

In the U.S. there are four major venomous snakes including the very lethal coral snake. A rattler' will give you a firm "Fuck off mate" bite that'll leave you in pain for a few days. A water moccasin or coral snake will kill your ass. The Copperhead (probably) Emily is handling is one of the least venomous of the pit viper family of snakes and requires a SIGNIFICANT dose of venom to kill. Copperheads also commonly give dry bites for whatever reason, especially when they're freaked out.

Thats clearly displayed in the comic.
Emily is getting bitten in the last panel.

From the angle we see it, the snake's head appears to be close to Emily's wrist. That is all I can see. Why are you so sure that she has been bitten?

Snake psychology.
Holding a snake like that, the only possible reason it might not be biting your left arm, would be if it was busy biting your right arm. (Even I know that you're supposed to grip them by the head. Err, that is given that, for whatever reason, you have to catch them in the first place. In Emmy's case, you're just supposed to not get close.)
