snakes

From Copperheads to Red Milk Snakes check out this YouTube video of a group that is looking for snakes in the Ozarks of Missouri, we had no idea there were this many kids of snakes out there...

This will sound strange, but I feel the need to correct some snake experts. I, for the record, am not a snake expert. However, I do think it's important to determine the most snake-infested lake that's actually inside of Illinois and not just touching it. Let's explore the numbers

I have one foolproof way to not get bitten by a venomous snake in Missouri, but there are also some official things you can do especially when it comes to the very commonly seen Cottonmouths.

Some people make unique choices about how to spend their time. I'm not judging, but this is one I'm gonna take a hard pass on. Some brave individuals voluntarily decide to go spend quality time outside hanging out with snakes in Missouri and Illinois and many are venomous, too. I'm talking about the snakes, of course.

It's the one Missouri lake that visitors most often want to take a dip in because it's the deepest and is in the heart of the most beautiful part of Missouri. It's also good to know if that sounds good to you that it also happens to be home to the most deadly snakes in the state.

Are you tired of the latest internet best of list? I've found something interesting about a Missouri place that was recently named the 2nd safest city in the state. I think the word "safe" might be questionable as I've since learned that it's also home to just about every snake and snake imaginable. Oh, and it's got lots of possums, too.

If you told me that Missouri had one of the most snake-infested rivers in the country, I'd agree and say it was the Mississippi River, but I'd be very wrong. The most river with the most reptiles is in Missouri, but it's not the mighty Mississippi.

This is certainly not the experience you want to have when you move into a new home. A family in Macoupin County, Illinois got an unwelcome surprise when they moved into their new place and found snakes everywhere including their toaster.

There are some Illinois snakes that can do you real harm. This isn't one of them even though he pretends he's a big and bad Cobra. The truth is he's really a cream puff and I'll prove it.

There are a lot of changes coming to Illinois in 2023 and among them is a new official slithering symbol that is about to become the snake that represents us all.
