RE: ARE THE WATER MOCCASINS OUT YET?
Nope, nuthin venomous around here. Well, cept for the odd black widow spider now and then. But those are few and far between up here with our awful winters. We do have skinks though! Not that they have any venom, but they do bite (softly) if ya try to mess with em much. We also have a few frogs up here in MN that take almost 3 years to mature from their tadpole stage.
Depending on what part of Minnesota you are in, there may be the Timber Rattlesnake or the Massasauga, both of which have rattles. We supposedly had them in Wisconsin, but I never managed to meet any no matter how hard I tried. Of course, they were both protected species, so I couldn't have picked them up, but still, a photo would have been nice.
