Could Have Been a Bad Day

[tomstopper]

Yesterday when I come out of the woods, I was placing my gear in my truck and leaned my gun up against my passenger side front tire. I went to grab it last and when I did, this thing slithered out into the road. I quickly put the gun in the truck, jumped in and backed my truck over it. Can't stand snakes especially when they are where I walk in every morning.

Looks like a good snake. Is that one of them copperheadedwatermocassins?

Those things can be pretty agressive. I ticked one off while plowing a field and it followed the tractor. I almost emptied the toolbox throwing stuff at it.

Wonder why they're called copperheads?? Just kidding it's obvious. Those things make me nervous. They are invisible in leaves. Way to kill him without wasting ammo.

Yikes!! (My truck might have lost traction in the slick pile I left in the road...)

Ya. I jumped back and was in my truck in seconds. Must have been behind that tire the whole time I was in my passenger door.  A little scary that's for sure

He said he ran over him I don't think he let him go anywhere lol I kill every water moccasin and copper head I see and have not even put a dent in the population.

I'm glad you didn't get bit.  I'm not scared of snakes but poison ones get the buzzard bait trick when I find them.

I wore my turtle skin snake gaiters all season here in Alabama and never saw a snake until right at the end of season. One little water snake that jumped off in the creek.  I did see one little rattle snake in the road that someone ran over.  I think it was just too cold most of the times I was out.

At first glance, yes.  But after further analysis, it appears to be a diamondbackcopperrattleheadedmocassin. 

They don't make very good pets.

All venomous snakes I see get taken care of.  All of the nonvenomous ones get a pass.
