The cottonmouth is a species of which animal?

Soo fearful especially when you're at the river then something you dont know suddenly bites you

this is the first question I've seen where the image is misleading.

Sightseeing and being outdoors is enjoyable. Just try to be more attentive. 💕

@JSH, I grew up in coastal NC and encountered a fair few. Most I’ve seen were about 3 to 4 feet; but the biggest I’ve seen was as long as I am tall (about 6 feet). Quite cranky; in my experience they only strike humans out of instinct. I’ve never known one to go out of its way for humans. A friend of mine did get bit in the arm once (we were about 12 or 13 at the time). We were able to get him to a hospital within a couple of hours. Didn’t lose the arm, but it was swollen and discolored for over a month. He couldn’t hardly move or use it for over a week.

little b, same. The only good snake is a dead snake.

Absolutely Correct 💯

It says 'As an adult it is large.' How large?

Snakes have no legs, so this one completely threw me off.

Southeastern US is another place I'm adding to my list of never going then

Warl, ha true.

I Hate snakes 🐍

not sure where I heard that but I remembered it and got it right

We have them in Tennessee. I remember a water ride being closed down several years back due to an invasion of them

cottonmouths are also found in northern states they are found in Pennsylvania

A very dangerous one at that!
