But only warm-blooded animals carry rabies for example, so at least it won't give you rabies! I'm not even sure birds really get rabies, maybe only mammals.
@PKfisherman A diamondback water snake. They're harmless, yes, with the exception of an unfortunate bacterial infection upon getting bitten or something of course.
But I heard people are always killing them since they mistake their identity. So, I'm definitely going to catch one and dissect it but then I won't kill ...more anymore lol
@Saltyhank Honestly like if I can't handle the bite then you can handle the bite (right?!), so there's no point in killing it or anything, they're so ...more skittish anyways. And super kewww
@amassie I believe it's a diamondback water snake, but I could be wrong. I'm like 89% (?) positive though that it's a type of DB water snake. People ...more mistake them for rattlers & cottonmouths a lot
Oh heck no. I luv to fish but, can't do snakes. I was kayaking the other day and seen one cruising by about 25 yards from me. Just kept my eye on him but still ...more creepy. That abd spiders....heck no..
@SwampMafia Lol yes it did. I had to grab a little further down behind its head when it tried to dart off, but I really wanted the snake & it was just a bite ...more or a few so no big deal haha
