Best Answer

Depending on the context (usage), a bight [as a noun] may be a bay or gulf, a river bend, the body of water surrounded by such a bend (like an oxbow...), the middle part of a rope that is different from the ends of the rope, or the loop or bent part of a rope that is different from the ends. As a verb, it means "to fasten, or bind with a bight of rope".

In Australia, the Bight (the Great Australian Bight, that is...) is that major indentation along the South coast, spanning Cape Pasley in Western Australia to the Eyre Peninsula in South Australia.

How do you treat an animal attack?

it depends on the type of wound. for something poisonous, you have to imobelize the person completely, and apply pressure bandages to the entire limb, and call and ambulance. for big bights 'crater wounds' there is actually not much you can do- that is, wrap it up in a pressure bandage- to stop bleeding and resisit infection, and get the person to a hospital as soon as possible, with them moving as little as possible. for wounds on the hands or arms, make sure that they keep it raised above their heads, as it will lessen the amount of blood lost.
