I don't recognize the snake, but most of the venomous ones are brighter colors. OTOH, a nonvenomous snake bite can be pretty bad. In the first place, they don't brush their teeth and are likely to have rotting bits of flesh stuck to them. In the second place, a common attack procedure is to bite, hold on and wrap the snake body around the prey, and squeeze the prey to death. This one should have chosen a much smaller prey, but it might take a long time to realize that and let go.
You've never seen a copperhead or a rattlesnake or a water moccasin before, have you? They're all drab colored snakes. The only brightly colored venomous snake in the US that I'm aware of is a coral snake. As far as constriction goes, venomous snakes bite, let go and let the poison do the work. They don't need to constrict like a non-venomous python or boa constrictor.
Like what wirecutter said, copperheads and especially water moccasins are drab in color, probably won't give you any warning before striking if they are disturbed... JD
That’s a fucking King Cobra. Look at the color pattern and how big it is, and when homeboy is grappling it by the neck you can see the hood start to flatten out. BTW King Cobras feed on other snakes and it happens to have the same color scheme as out Kingsnakes. Probably just a coincidence.
Oooph, and I thought my Monday was bad. Pry that trash open with a big ass knife . . . or a stick. I almost got bit on my face by a copperhead a few years because I noticed the colorful ribbon snake on a nearby bush, but I didn't see the copperhead perched on top of the T-stake I was relieving myself at. The copperhead didn't live much longer.

ReplyDeleteTrouser snake
ReplyDeleteNo one has a knife?
ReplyDeleteThat was my first thought. Cut the head off
Deletenotice they seem to take great care not to injure the snake.
Deleteinstead of just cutting off its head. snake lovers
A snake's head can live for up to 30 minutes after being cut off. Might still make it easier to unclamp, though.
DeleteEwwww that's so much worse then a tic on your dick. Ouch!
ReplyDeletewhy one should always carry a knife.
ReplyDeleteAt least they thought ahead to record the event.
They could have had a picture of a knife. Maybe they could have showed the snake that.
DeleteWhy doesn't he just strangle it
ReplyDeleteProbably because all of his friends are around. I prefer privacy when I strangle my snake.
DeleteThis is why I'll miss you, I'll be chuckling all day with that one.
DeleteNo, the sign doesn't say "Illegal Aliens Dicks Are Within Striking Range Of Snake".
ReplyDelete"Don't Tread On Me", we thought, was pretty clear in its message.

ReplyDeleteOne of the jobs for venom is to start digesting the meal before it is eaten.
ReplyDeleteDid any of his female friends suck the venom out? Enquiring minds want to know.

High proof alcohol (sprayed) or ice water poured on the snake's head is supposed to be good at getting a snake to release.
