ive been bitten twice by garter snakes and i had no issues w/ the wounds. the trick when handling snakes is to get a hold of them right behind the head, that way they cant turn and bite you. that was a mistake that i only made once.
watching this made me so happy. not only is he the cutest little kid ever with his safari hat and his "there we go" but you can def. tell he is excited and happy while spending time with his father, which is SUCH a great thing to see since it's so rare these days. and like stated earlier, it is GREAT that you are teaching him how to handle snakes and not be terrified of them. I love how he listens too. he goes SO slow after you tell him to slow down. absolutely amazing! hah thank you for sharing
@TheTheRISKtaker they produce very mild neurotoxic venom harmless to most humans. Have been reports of people being allergic to their venom and having pain and swelling. But they can't produce enough venom to cause to much harm to even highly allergic people. They also have a very poor delivery system, they have to chew to release the venom from there glands, like most rear fanged snakes, example-hognose snake
@b3astiemaninLA garter snakes are harmless. my dad works for the Crocodile Conservation Center of Florida and i catch these snakes all the time and i get bitten but i don't feel anything but the bite.
I used to be afraid of snakes but my cat kept bringing living ones in my house and I was the only one in my family that had enough guts to take them out to the yard and every time it got easier and easier so I told my parents next one the cat brings in I'm keeping on my 17th birthday my cat got me a new pet for a present and I actually think their really cool now I feed it worms but I would like to know what else I can feed it because who wants to eat the same thing every meal
I live by a cornfield and by the edge there's these two thin pieces of wood and under that is one rat hole each( we call it the rats nest ) we hang out there and such but what we noticed is that garder snakes hang around to eat I'm looking forward to catch one
I have two snakes in my backyard that I've been assuming were garners but one bit me on the hand a while ago(had to move him out of the way) hurt like hell and damn it was very fast. I've also noticed that they both are very feisty (what wild animal isn't) Anywho my question is if anyone knows what kind of snake it could be. It's sort of a greyish black, long/thin. Has no markings, just one color cept for bottom which is white at least I think. Anyone have a guess? It's in Washington State
I got many garters and I have been bit and I have to agree with the below comment by PPKDude852, because I have gotten bite and it did swell n get itchy AND i have bad allergies to things bu amazingly the bit did not bother me
You know, Garter Snakes do carry a mild neurotoxic venom with their bite. Nothing serious, of course. But if you ever are bitten then you'll start to experience that the area around the bite swells a little and gets itchy. It may even be a little numb.
Awwhe, he's just like me! I have two milk snakes and a Garter snake, and my male milk snake and my garter have never bitten. My Female milk snake is vicious. =] But it's okay, it's her nature, I still adore her.
just some advice: when handling garter snakes well snakes in general dont be jumpy around them ( in detail dont be shaking your hand or put your hand in and jerk it back) because it scares them and they snakes tend to bite when threatened or scared....... nice job catching all of those snakes just wish i could catch one soon :(
Cool Snake. But yes, they do bite. My husband just let my son hold a small garter snake, and it bit him. He had blood coming from 4 small puncture wounds. He didn't cry, but he said it did hurt! So beware, just don't let the kids hold the snakes. They can look and Ooh and Ahh, but leave it at that!!!:)
@4evrluvmykids We find and handle snakes all the time. While these snake can and sometimes do bite, they are completely harmless and shouldn't be feared. They normally wont bite unless they feel threatened or are defending themselves. You should see the size of some of the bull-snakes we find,5-6 feet long ;)
@Wildrsq yeah garters tend to let out a lovely stink when they get scared. and truthfully i find NOTHING wrong with this video. when I was a kid I always caught garter snakes and truthfully, when i chased them and they went into a crevice i couldnt get them, i would use my finger as bait. once they bit me i would pull them out. I was his age when i started it so even IF one of these guys bit him out of fear (not food) it really wouldnt hurt, and like stated earlier it is completely harmless.
Not all snakes have teeth, But 98% do, and yes these snakes will bite you. Normally under 20in the bite is nothing to worry about (Garter ONLY!). I have 4 Garter snakes. They do bite time to time, while im playing or feeding. Nothing "big". My Rattle snake has not tried to strike me yet, and im not sure why - but he IS VENOM yet. My Copperhead and both Cobras Will strike / try to strike when you even get near their case. My one KC cobra Vorlock is boun kill me yet. Im trying a cross breed w him.
ok guys most people thinks a garter snake have no teeth but they do but they are so small i dont consider it teeth and they can bite u and bleed u but its a can not a will its quite often they bite and u dont realize it
this was me except i walked in to the house with one in each hand, when i was 5 and showed my mom. She wasnt to happy that they were lunging at her and not me
I just saw one next to my door. I was going to kill it but I had to do research and find out that these snakes are no threat to man. So grabbed a stick and let it loose on a tree. However if it was a rattle snake, it's dead on the spot as I have no need for dangerous snakes.
Everyone seems to be in a controversy about garter snakes and their venom. Garter snakes DO have venom in their back teeth. This venom is released through a chewing motion. However, the venom is mild and will not have a dangerous effect on a human. The most that will happen when you are bitten is you will experience the bite area becoming itchy and it may swell a little. There have been no cases reporting serious injury from these snakes. Btw your son is a brave little guy :) great video!
haha garter snakes will bite too! I got bit by one that chewed my hand for about 3 minutes and sure enough my hand swelled up from their mild rear fang venom.
I had a garter for around a year as a pet. never bit me. I never had a problem and I was told they had no teeth...Ive just youtubed/googled these and erm...apparently they have teeth! Loved the video. too cute! Thumbs up!
They do have teeth people....all snakes do they just don't have longer fangs like poisonous snakes have. They do bite but it doesn't hurt really. My credentials: raised on a 748 acre farm in Alabama you could say I've seen alot! I've been bitten twice, once on the foot(flip flops are dumb to wear out in cotton fields) and once on the hand.
Apparently they have a set of venomous teetch in the back of their jaws behind their eyes. The venom is released while they chew. It's mild. I just read about it.
And FYI just as the uploader of this video suggests, garter snakes DO infact have teeth that are considerably small compared to other snakes but can draw blood. Fortunately these fun and beautiful snakes are harmless and do not possess any venom that is harmful to humans.
I see what you are saying. THey do eat their prey whole but they don't suck it down they walk it back with their teeth. Perhaps that is when the mild venom from the back of their jaws releases into their prey making it easier to swallow
That was what everyone thought until recently. They have venom in their back teeth. It is mild. All you have to do is a small amount of research on the internet to find these things out.
You're the moron. They most certainly do have teeth. How do you think they hold on to their food and draw blood when they bite? What an idiot. Some garter snakes when first captured, will bite but after a few times, they usually stop biting. Most of them just bluff, striking at you without biting. Their teeth are small but razor sharp and so they can draw blood, but it doesn't hurt.
@jj1x0 yeah they do, and its been confirmed that they also have venom glands in their back teeth for killing prey. I've been bitten, and it doesn't really hurt unless they get you with those back teeth, then it itches really bad, and it bleeds for a while, and if your allergic it can cause some serious complications. They have many little teeth and they hold on very well.
if they bite u they bite u as long as its not like a rattle snake or something u will be find and most the time they dont bite u after the frist time u pick them up..
I have a question. My mom found a baby Garter in my dad's drive way, and she kept him/her as a pet. and i brought him in from sunning today. and now i can't find him in his cage, its nearly impossible for him to get out of the cage, cause its 5 gallons deep (it might be 10) and i simply can't find him. any suggestions?
possibly if you irritate them enough but if you keep them calm then they wont bite. If they do bite then its not venomous at all. Your son would only receive small wounds thats all.
your son has more guts than me xD i got a scorpion (an emperor, the big black ones. the sting isnt bad, its the claws that hurt) and it was maybe only 2 inches big. i NEVER touched it EVER lol. not even when it died, did i touch it lol. so he has some guts to be able to pick up a snake that easily
i think its great you are teaching your kid to LIKE snakes instead of hate them. I personally have a 6 foot male boa constrictor and a 4 foot jungle carpet python! This world needs more people like you and your kid!
@OmniStif31 yes they will bite, it doesn't hurt though. and the way to tell if a snake is poisonus is if it has a triangular shaped head. these guys aren't poisonus.
@skellens42 You don't know much about snakes, do you? They can tell the difference, and it is not always a bluff. If threatened a snake will strike, will bite, and you will feel it.
WOW! He is so brave! I'm 20 and my cats love to bring these snakes to me as presents!!! I have to get my boyfriend to get them out of the house! Nice vid and cute kid!
you dont move slow when you catch them i feild herp for big boas and pythons and monitor lizards you quickly grab it by its head (neck) what ever you wanna call it but just a heads up
we have these things in our yard.caught a few before but couldnt get them to eat. so i let them go in our garden.tried giving them worms.all thats coming to a end because in recent years skunks started infesting our neighborhoods (dont know where they came from) and one of the things they eat is garter snakes.
Reminds me of when I was kid catching all the snakes I could find! Its funny, that is how I met my first girlfriend too, she loved catching snakes as well.

They rarely bite, but it doesn't hurt at all. I just got bitten yesterday. How many garters did you have in that cage?

possibly if you irritate them enough but if you keep them calm then they wont bite. If they do bite then its not venomous at all. Your son would only receive small wounds thats all.

your son has more guts than me xD i got a scorpion (an emperor, the big black ones. the sting isnt bad, its the claws that hurt) and it was maybe only 2 inches big. i NEVER touched it EVER lol. not even when it died, did i touch it lol. so he has some guts to be able to pick up a snake that easily

i think its great you are teaching your kid to LIKE snakes instead of hate them. I personally have a 6 foot male boa constrictor and a 4 foot jungle carpet python! This world needs more people like you and your kid!

@Wildrsq will they bite u? and are they posionous??
OmniStif31 1 year ago
@OmniStif31 yes they will bite, it doesn't hurt though. and the way to tell if a snake is poisonus is if it has a triangular shaped head. these guys aren't poisonus.

@skellens42 You don't know much about snakes, do you? They can tell the difference, and it is not always a bluff. If threatened a snake will strike, will bite, and you will feel it.

Garter snakes are fun to catch To not get bitten just slowly grab it by its tail and work your way up and it wont bite

Just goes to show that Garter snakes are not aggressive if you just accomodate to their needs. ~ Just got a Garter as a pet. Excellent work guys.

we have these things in our yard.caught a few before but couldnt get them to eat. so i let them go in our garden.tried giving them worms.all thats coming to a end because in recent years skunks started infesting our neighborhoods (dont know where they came from) and one of the things they eat is garter snakes.
