How to identify Canadian snakes

Our unfounded fear of snakes is a threat to their survival. Snakes and humans have to share the landscape. Half of the snakes in Ontario are considered endangered, threatened, or at risk. Here is a useful guide to identifying our slithery friends.

1. If it carries a Canadian flag, then it's probably Canadian snake.
2. If it bodypainted itself in canadian colors - it's probably a Canadian snake.
3. If it wears a mountie uniform - it's probably a Canadian snake.
In the event of seeing any one of the above snakes, please consult your optometrist immediately.

This is not a comprehensive list of snakes in Ontario, as there are quite a few of Ontario snakes that are not on this list...So c'mon and give us the whole list of the Ontario snakes. Geez Man, and you're the ministery, more like the mystery, 'cause you don't know what's going on around here either!! How about completing the list with ALL of the snakes in Ontario, not just the ones YOU WANT!!! AND STOP WITH THE RIP-OFF CLICKBAITING US...This could be dangerous if some tourists encounters one of the snakes you left off the list and they don't know what exactly bit them because you didn't include ALL THE SNAKES THAT ARE IN ONTARIO...SHAME ON YOU GUYS!!!!!

When you hear them, it sounds like.... Sssssssss eh.

Nice segment. People who are afraid of snakes should understand that this is perfectly natural in a large percentage of us. Science for instance has demonstrated that monkeys are born with an innate fear of snakes. So those of us afraid of snakes are simply closer to our monkey ancestors in their genetic expression. No shame in that, monkeys can be fascinating. The snake at 1:35 is a European grass snake by the way.

Garter snakes

You say Canada but then talk only about snakes in Ontario.

[@tozobozo4142]

Not so. There is the prairie rattler in here for instance, which is endemic to two western separatist jurisdictions fed up with not having their snakes recognized.
