RE: HOW TO ACCURATELY IDENTIFY A WATER MOCCASIN FROM A DISTANCE
howdy this fine Monday @papa-pepper! this is such a great educational video, thank you. I didn't know that water snakes could mimic water moccasins. I wonder if Texas has laws against killing snakes? thank you sir!
nice hat.
Thanks man! The mimicking is very convincing to watch.
it's a rather amazing ability but the poor water snakes have no idea the danger they put themselves in when it comes to people anyway who might kill a moc but not a water snake.
Yeah, that's a good point. Just being a snake is bad enough, but pretending to be venomous! Oh no, look out!
exactly sir because there ain't a whole lot of papa-peppers running around out there, most of us are scared witless of those things. but I think your videos help people to see that they are just animals that can be treated with respect.
I hope so. I definitely respect them, and I think even watching me shove a camera (in my hand) next to their heads without any horrible results may change how much people irrationally fear them. (Not that I encourage ANYONE to try what I do.)
lol! yes sir, well I don't think you have to worry about too many of us trying to do what you do! maybe Rainbow Man!
