  • @ojatro it was, your welcome :)

  • Was the species called Decrodidae? It's the one with pit vipers.

  • Hey guy u talk toooooooooooo much!!!

  • Snakes are one of the only things alongside Crocodiles and Lizards that make me think twice about going to Florida.

    Never been, but just how common are they? And is there Scorpions in Florida?

    Never been, so I know absolutely nothing

  • @WESTCOASTRYDAZ18ST Unless you get your CAPS Lock fixed you will NEVER get laid. So dont try to rape animals please

  • yea thought about moving to Miami ...not any more though

  • Proof you don't have to go far to find the true bad asses of the snake world

  • الله شيء روووووووووووعه

  • I found a kornsnake. They are not venomous but some can get aggressive and bite but no worries they are harmless snakes and many people keep them as pets.

  • @ojatro i do but i didnt take it from the wild ofcourse

  • From everything I've read about pit vipers (especially copperheads), their bites can cause extensive tissue damage in the affected limb, but the only way a healthy adult can die from such a bite is to do an Irish jig immediately after being bitten. Most snake bite deaths in the US are the result of human stupidity.

  • ive been bit by a copperhead it feels like your skin is peeling off kinda

  • If you would like to learn more about these snakes stop by VenomCenter

  • Nope. I'm just the filmmaker not the

    animal wrangler. Thanks for watching.

  • Thank You.

  • me voy de la florida, pal carajo,jajaja

  • Hi,how do I get a hold of you,thanks.!

  • You can always contact me over my website Ojatro.com

  • copperhead is such a beauty!

  • The hell w/ calling animal control, I'm GRABBING TAURUS JUDGE ! 

  • the music in this sucked, it made me think my air conditioner was broken or something

  • @GracebeNancy Ok well first of Florida has BURMESE PYTHONS not Boa constrictors, not even the same genus for gods sake..... And Florida would be WAY better of with Boa constrictors they are a LOT safer then even your neighbors dog... They never bite and are extremely docile... Burmese pythons are actually pretty docile to in captivity i cant say the same for monitors tho they can be a bitch even in captivity...

  • @iFeedMyDingoBiscuts the bad thing is, these things ARENT native to the state!! These have been released by people who got tired of having them as pets, and now they are breeding, and becoming a danger to local wildlife, AND pets...some of the snakes are VERY large that have been caught and killed. With no natural predators to keep these snakes in check, they ARE a danger...dont' get me started on Nile monitors that are now breeding and running wild here too...

  • @yankeegurl62 First off, not all of them have been purposely released a lot of them escaped during the hurricanes, second these animals are not VERY large in the snake world. Burmese will max out at about 20 feet, this is not big enough to eat a person. Perhaps they could eat a young child but would probably decide against it because of the stature of a human. Also feral dogs kill more people and other pets or farm animals then any large reptile.

  • @yankeegurl62 Look I am not saying that this isn't a problem, But the problem is blown up because of the media. And because this SMALL problem has been blown up and the IDIOTIC laws being put into place because of this are really affecting a lot of RESPONSIBLE pet owners. I'm not saying this isn't a problem or that the feral Burmese pythons shouldn't be exterminated... BUT STOP GIVING LARGE SNAKES SUCH A BAD NAME! ITS IDIOTS LIKE YOU THAT MAKE PEOPLE AFRAID OF THEM.

  • @iFeedMyDingoBiscuts you can make a point without name calling, as I did. Living down here, IN FLORIDA, where these snakes are, along with the wild monkeys, that have been released, and piranaha that have been released make it difficult for the NATIVE animals here. Yes, it does make it difficult for responsible owners, but SADLY they are few and far between. Again, make apoint WITHOUT insulting. Thank you

  • @yankeegurl62 I made it through most of it without name calling I am sorry but it really pisses me off when I see people tainting the name of reptiles like that! the reason politicians made such a big deal about the wild snakes is in LARGE part because people are afraid and ignorant when it comes to reptiles! and it does not help us when people go around saying they are "dangerous" when you are literally a hundred times more likely to be attacked by a human... anyway I'm sorry

  • @iFeedMyDingoBiscuts apology accepted, hey, we all have those days....God bless

  • I just began trying to do raw Documentary Wildlife Videos with very crude equipment, I only have 24 years experience in Herpatology with most of the same kinds of snakes. Never been bit by either Non-Venomous  or Venomous snakes. Keep up the great job! From Jim Fishers The Wide World of Wildlife © Forestry and Wildlife.

  • Thank You. Good luck with your documentary.

    Let me know when your project is finished.

    I would like to see your work.

  • I'm sorry it has taken me so long to reply. I am 45 years old married with 4 children and this past year return to college to further my studies and degrees. So, this past year I have not had the time to do any filming. Just research which I should have filmed. I love the quality of you videos, commentaries and wonderful explanation giving excellent insight for those who have no idea about herpetology. You seem to be a person that I would like to work with and learn from. ~ wideworldofwildlife

  • Good but soooooo boring... I love watching nature shows but this one was like rock bottom for some reason, maybe no action n the voice was .... Plain....

  • i am looking forward to watch the part of king cobra or black mamba

  • The Copperhead is in my top 3 favorite venomous snakes for sheer beauty.

  • Is it true that idiots and/or hurricanes are releasing all sorts of deadly snakes all over florida, such as cobras, kraits, bushmasters etc?

  • the only species that is thriving in florida is the burmese python, many other species of snakes have been released, but have not survived long enough to thrive, based on theory the only reason the burmese is able to thrive is because they can be aquatic, since most animals considered as prey items are birds, which there are more than plenty of, compared to the mammals we have which would be mor elikely prey items for a venomous snake

  • It's true that many exotic species of animals (not just snakes) live in and near the Everglades due to the perfect weather conditions. Cobras as well as a King Cobra (in one case) have been removed from the Everglades in recent years. Surprisingly, it was observed that the capture cobras have been feeding on Bufo Taods, also an invasive species of the Everglades today.

  • @mrsmelzbad the everglades have no documented encounters with kraits or bushmaster, that's for certain. Generally, I've come across a boa constrictor (gorgeous and aggressive) and a burm (about 6 feet long). Haven't seen an african rock python yet but they're there, that's for sure.

  • copperheads are bitches. we got em here in tennessee. theyre SNEAKY. i don't know how many times ive been sittin in one spot and look down and BAM copperhead. all i can think is "shit." LOL. my friend got bit and was out for 3 weeks.i hate them suckers.

  • great videos, very informative, thanx

  • Thank you.

  • i live in florida..and the only ones i ever run into are moccasins..so if the copper head is the least venomus of them all,how bad would a bite from one of these be,on a scale of 1-10?

  • probably like a 6 or 7 their not as venomous as the cottenmouths or coral snakes but they do pack a punch

  • Im from alabama. Were over run with copperheads and water moccasins. There along every bank of every island and shore line. Its crazy i got bit when i was 12 The pain was so horrible that i passed out and they said i actually died a couple times at the hospital..i live in florida now i feel a little safer cuz im a big time out door person. course im a lot older now and havent had any problems with snakes since then.

  • Cotton mouths can become real pussycats in captivity and will become very laid back and easy to care for.

    They will eat almost anything for you including chicken wings,mice,frogs,tadpoles,fish­,turkey wings.

    They would probably eat a hotdog weenie if you offered them one.

  • water moccasins are the worst, they blend in and give no warning whatsoever. coral snakes are so rare that you dont have to worry about them.

    rattlesnakes give off warnings before striking normally and aren't so bad, i have ran into one copperhead, i would have to say it was by far the most beautiful , well tempered, snake i have ever ran across.

  • just a beautiful animal...

  • To be pedantic, you have 2 genus of Crotalidae in Florida, Crotalus and Sistrurus. But being a pedant aside, a truly SUPERB video with a lot of really useful knowledge and fantastic camera work. Very impressive work and I'll be watching every episode :o)

    I found my first US venomous in Texas a few years back (I'm from England) and can happily say that the Copperhead, found in Armand Bayou, was both the nicest natured and most beautiful viper I've ever found. Truly gorgeous snakes.

  • There is no such thing MMMLAME

  • OMG I had plans to move to florida for my PhD in UCF.

  • @mmmbrame LOL, you can have my house, it's on fresh water. I'm moving out...LOL

    I have seen everykind of snake...almost bitten, accidentally picked one up while gardening, even seen two snakes that experts never talk about or have seen. My sister saw it too. A pink one that crawls kind of on its belly, but in an up and down motiion like walking a little and a tiny velvety black snake that was so beautiful, it had perfect littel white polka dots all over it. It was on my porch.

  • @saharra22469 U were probably tripping acid, there aren't any snakes in the world how u describe em

  • you should see my trouser snake ... deadly

  • My one eyed albino trouser snake. It is a spitter.

  • lmao

  • inland taipan has the most powerful venom of any LAND snake

    the banded sea krait is said to be the most venomous

  • muy interesante

  • thnx 4 posting this im heading down to florida next month to do snake research and im only 14 so it will be a big experince that will live with me forever

  • R.I.P. snakemaster, sadly died last week because he thought he could handle a Florida Snake without having any experience. Our thoughst are with the poor snake for biting its teeth off...

  • lol ok

  • did u seriously call me a noob because you think the inland taipan has the most lethal venom and i dont? well sir i know my snakes and you are wrong..... "noob"

  • did you JUST look that up on google? im proud of you but im sorry no its the sea krait..

  • Little Bastards here in florida are Agressive.

  • Copperheads are prevalant here in the hills of Pennsylvania. Though I photograph them at close range without fear, if I see one swimming near me in the creek, I get out ASAP.

    They can cut through the water like lightening.

  • mattlevitch

    The inland taipan of Australia, aka fierce snake, has the most toxic venom of any species.

    Me

    Yeah, but we'll never know exactly how fast it can kill a human. All known human bites (recorded) have been treated using antivenin.

  • Very well presented--this guy is extremely knowlegeable!

  • I agree with you, i believe the sea krait has the most powerful venom, but there is such a small # of bites from them, so the most deadly is the Russels Viper but the most lethal is sea krait!

  • This is awesome. I have a bit of an interest in snakes, so this was cool.

    I thought "peek-a-boo" when I saw the copperhead at 4:36. XD

  • I believe you're talking about the sea krait. It is easily one of the most venomous snakes in the world.

  • amazing footage of those snakes! very clear!

  • lol ty

  • please dont think im stupid but could the coperhead kill a guy?

  • It hasn't killed anybody as long as theve recorded, but if your highly allergic it can kill you,

  • Never said the Inland Taipan is the most dangerous. I only said that its venom is the most toxic in the world. :)

  • copperhead is a very beautiful snake, i have been lucky enough to see them in person and an encounter with this snake should be seen as a privledge, not an opportunity to kill it

  • the most venemous snake is the australian inland taipan with enough venom in one bite to kill over 100,000-150,000 mice (not sure how many people that is)

  • The most venomous snake in the world is a type of sea snake, I'm thinking the belchers sea snake but I could be wrong.

  • Yellow-bellied sea snake.

  • Oh okay, wasent sure,

  • that is actually incorrect. The most venemous snake in the world is in fact the australian TAIPAN, also known as the FIERCE SNAKE.

  • Nope you are incorrect, look it up geneise.

  • You know it no where does venemous snakes like oz.

  • I love this. I'm majoring in Ophiology (the study of snakes); I'm just fascinated by snakes; the way they move; the sound they make; the pigmentation of their skins. Although people have always been afraid of snakes since the beginning of time (Snake of Eden) snakes are the most misunderstood creatures in the animal kingdom.

  • This has to be my favorite of the N. American pit vipers - the colors are incredible. What a beautiful snake. More great footage and another excellent video!

  • you forgot to mention that the venom of the copperhead is hemotoxic and can cause the loss of a digit(fingers or toes) and that the bite is very painful

  • Professionally done with high quality video. Good job.

  • Trust the coppertop! I name him Duracell!
