One thing I learned living in Georgia for almost 30 years is you never flip tin over unless you're looking for snakes because you're going to find one.
@Bearded Guy I think these are less agressive because of cool temps. But in general rattle snakes and copperheads are less agressive then venomous snakes from other countries. Water moccasins on the other hand are much more agressive.

Good watching you guys flip tin. I’m in Australia and flipping tin here is much different. I’m amazed at how docile those snakes you found were except the 2. In Australia snakes are fast, aggressive and active. They are either slithering off at great speed or standing up in an s shape ready to strike or actually strike. The heat downunder means the snakes are full of energy to burn. If you ever come to Australia, be much more careful flipping tin here. That’ll give you an adrenaline rush or death here. Good luck herps
i hear inland taipans are pretty chill, in the leave me alone and ill leave you alone sense, but if you get bit, your fucked, since its the most venomous snake in the world
Depends on the time of year. Copperheads are pretty aggressive depending on the time of year, mainly during mid-late summer to mid fall (when it's the most humid).
@@charlescourtwright2229 most snakes don’t want anything to do with people. Taipans and eastern brown snakes (both highly venomous and use up to 80% of their body to strike) will attack rather than flee. Any snake in Australia if feeling threatened will defend themselves. While I haven’t had anything to with inland taipans, I’ve been told that they aren’t as aggressive by a large margin in comparison to a coastal taipan. I’ve dealt with a few taipans but mostly eastern brown snakes and they will go you. What I can tell you for sure is that they wouldn’t sit there like a copperhead in that video.
Same here. In Northeast Pennsylvania, most snakes we have found are in rock dens, under large flat rocks, plywood or cardboard' usually on the side of the roads. I have never seen more than one or two pieces of metal like this anywhere except in open fields where people dump them (along with tyres, mattresses etc.)

So we made the hike and sat at the top of the mountain in some rocks waiting for the sun to come up. Once it finally came up and we could see I noticed where I’d been sitting for the last hour there were two copperheads coiled up about a foot behind me.

Well, we all have to meet the Reaper someday. Would you rather die from a snake bite causing a few hors of pain, or would you rather die of a geriatric cause after months, maybe years, of crippling pain? I will not be dying of natural geriatric related causes. Natural geriatric related death is painful, unsanitary, degrading, long drawn, and drags someone down with your, usually.
@@indridcold8433 if I live old enough to have major age related issues I'm not dying in a hospital after spending years in medication/treatment hell. If I can't operate on a daily basis without putting my family into crippling debt or having to rely on someone 24/7 then I'm taking a bag of supplies and a gun into the forest and spend some time coming to piece with my death before causing it myself. My wife is supportive of this. I'd rather die with my dignity than put my family through watching me die slowly.
@@dirtyricenova7503 I am in full agreement with your strategy. I already have an extremely rural area picked out where my body will never be found. I knew a man that took ten years to die. He was not living those ten years, he was dying miserably, painfully, and disgustingly. He died in a rented bed in a studio apartment with nothing. Around the five year mark after he had his heart attacks, I was wishing he would have died when the heart attacks happened. Around the end, he told me he wished the would have died ten years earlier. There are far worse things than death. He lived them. I take extremely good care of myself. But I will not be dying of geriatric related causes nor prolonging a miserable death after a major heart attack or after being diagnosed with a terminal illness. I have my own dispatch out of this miserable planet.
A friend was visiting her daughter last spring and they decided to take a walk down a dirt road. I guess they were close to the bushy edge of the road and somehow her daughter surprised a copperhead with struck and bit her in the lower leg. She spent several days in hospital and then weeks recovering in bed at home. I also live in an area where copperheads are plentiful and where it's not unusual for people working in their flowerbeds to be bitten.
When I was a kid I played tag with a wild black racer. We chased each other back and forth around the yard for about half an hour before it left and went back to the woods
Spent 10 years in coastal SC, herping and fishing. Those big garters don't mess around! I remember some bloody hands from back in the day. Rainbows, muds, racers, red-bellies, eastern kings, more cottonmouths than I could count....but NEVER found a rattlesnake. Worst bite was a determined clamp from an 83-inch yellow rat on the edge of the Ravenel plantation. In FL now and still looking for my first indigo and coachwhip. LOVE your channel!!!! Takes me back to my younger days.
Their defense mechanism is to be very still in hopes you think they are leaves. One reason they bite so many people in the south. Rattlesnakes rattle, cottonmouths will be very aggressive hissing and whatnot, but copperhead just try to wait til you leave and get stepped on.
They’re actually venomous. Not enough venom to kill a person though. If you’re allergic to venom though, you might die if you don’t seek medical attention.
@@MsCookieli and only mildly venemous and almost impossible to envenomate they would literally need to chew on you for a while even then probably not possible
I had a rattlesnake get in the engine of my truck and when I started driving the damn thing came out by my wipers and started coming up the windshield. I almost wrecked my truck and for the next year if my keys brushed against my knee while driving I'd jump. Lol
I found an equally aggressive garter snake in California. Prior to that, I had also thought them to be docile. Other snakes I found to be aggressive were western diamond back water snakes and the most aggressive I've ever come across were sidewinder rattle snakes.
@@fionnmaccumhaill3257 Where I live in Northeast Pennsylvania, the only snakes I have found under rocks or plywood have been Eastern Garters, and they either take off or act defensively. I have never seen so much aluminium/tin as there is in this video.
You know your a true animal lover when you call it "love bites" 😂 comment section made me feel better about being so blind with the copperheads. Thanks for showing us all these beautiful guys!
I know he gets tired of the copperheads, but honestly, besides speckled kings, they are in my opinion one of the prettiest snakes. I could watch videos of him finding nothing but copperheads every day. If (and a big if) I ever got into venomous snake keeping, a Copperhead would be the only one I'd keep other than maybe a pygmy.
I used to have rattlesnakes around the barn that my wife rented for her horses. I went and found some black snakes and let them loose at the barn. We now have a bunch of black snakes but nothing else. An old timer told me black snakes will keep away all others. He was right.
Black snakes lol. It cracks me up when I hear people say that. Argue with people here in NC all the time because they think there's only one "Black Snake" and they also assume every snake in or near the water is a Cottonmouth.
@@blazerwilliams2260 the nc people (I know) know that there are different types of water snakes. People say that water moccasins are the same as cotton mouths. There are different kind of black snakes there’s red belly water snake, Mexican black king snake and more.
Flipping tin is an old South Carolina tradition. For many it was a extra means of income as some of the medical facilities would pay for the venomous snakes to help with the development of anti venoms. A lot of the old tin is from where hurricane Hugo tore through the state back in 89.
Copperheads are actually pretty docile and not considered aggressive. As long as you are not on their nest or cornering them they are cool. I have handled them before, as long as you read their current attitude right, they won't try to bite you.
@@MrMrsregor It also depends on the locals. If people are killing those that aren't aggressive all you are left with is an aggressive population. Snakes pass down their attitudes to their offspring. It also depends on local predators if they have any major ones too. simply put, dangerous area=mean snakes
By instinct, they don't believe you can see them. Of course, it's situational. I encountered one that was very defensive and just wanted to be left alone.
Those copperheads are amazingly well camouflaged. I couldn’t even see them when you flipped the tin until you zeroed in with the camera. Very interesting! When I was a kid in the ‘60s around Mobile, Alabama, we used to find tons of harmless green snakes. They were beautiful emerald green about the color of the tree frog you highlighted. I suppose those are extinct these days. I know I have not seen one in decades. I wonder if you ever encounter them. It would be nice to know that they’ve managed to survive until today.
Hey, I know your comment is a year old, but I just did a quick google, and these guys seem to be doing really well! They’re called a ‘rough green snake’ or ‘green grass snake’. The ones I saw definitely fit your description, anyway. Hope this helps!

Great video I live in Central Maryland and have Black Rat , copperheads I learned that copperheads are rarely aggressive if you respect them unless you make them feel threatened, they are truly a beautiful snake.
Fun fact: Garter snakes have been found to have a mild venom. It is produced in the back of their mouthes, so it is called rear-fanged venomous. Their venom s not potent enough to be harmful to humans, but don’t think this snake was aware of that fact!🤣❤️🐍
I use to find copperheads in Virginia. My folks and I worked for our local SPCA and it was obviously highly important to have the area rid of copperhead. There must have been several times myself and a friend was called to clear them out. But we never killed them only relocated them.
Hahahaha. Bro they gonna get wrecked someday. You never lift tin or anything like it towards yourself, always use the opposite side you're on to lift. Come to Australia mate and lift the way they lift, you won't live long.
@@off-gridsimplyhappyrodriguez exactly. We have more venomous snakes here than non venomous. In my backyard right now I guarantee there is an eastern brown. Guarantee it
Great video. I grew up in NE Ohio, and we went looking for snakes all the time. In our experiences, the garter snakes were always aggressive and always quite big. Still have a scar on my hand from a bite 40 years later. Not a big one, but still there.
I have them on my property in the woods and black racers. I used to walk through the woods at night but I stopped after seeing the copperheads. If I need to go through the woods at night I take a flashlight and a walking stick to beat the ground in front of me. 22 years and no bites so far.
@@Mote78 I'm in Arizona and we don't have copperheads. We have 13 different species of rattlesnakes LOL. We have the deadliest in the world here, the Mojave green. But copperheads freak me out cuz they're basically a rattlesnake with no rattle. Is it true that copperheads smell like cucumbers when you get near them? I know that's a dumb question but somebody told me that.
When I was on hard times, I used to make money catching rattlesnakes and cottonmouths that I sold to a man I knew who would milk their venom and sell it to a lab that made anti-venom. I made my own snake hiding places to check for snakes. Worked really well. 👍
If you want to continue, you are invited to come to my place in Georgia for as long as you like. I'll feed you, give you a place to sleep. 😳😱 please. 😆
THIS was my life growing up 🐍 As kids we had a tight group of snake hunting friends... No such thing as video games, cell phones or girls LOL ... All free time was spent ( Snake hunting / flipping everything ) & ( Throwing Rock's at beer bottles ) lined up on the railroad tracks 😜😁😁 GOOD TIMES & we would jump a rail car now & then & ride them a few miles away to the rail yard & walk the tracks, back home .
We've got all four species of venomous snakes (not counting sub species) that live in the US here in South Carolina! We don't flip anything over here, even on Hilton Head Island where i reside. We have snakes everywhere, and alligators as well.
We used to do a lot of landscaping when I was a kid and clean up a lot of lots in north central Texas. Almost every time we'd move plywood, boards, or tin we'd find at least one snake; usually a copperhead. One time we found 3 in a pile of plywood. 2 were under the same board. Best way to find snakes is lay down some tin or plywood and forget about it for 10 months.
Coming from Ireland we got zero snakes here, old St Patrick sent them all packing, except we still have the odd two legged type. I was surprised at the Garter snake's aggression. I always thought they were like grass snakes and pretty tame mannered. Very interesting video, thanks for making it.
that's what was so funny about her, they're some of the most docile you can find in the wild. Kids will just pick them up and handle them without a care in the world. There's even a cave in Canada where they hibernate in the winter by the thousands, and park wardens will just pick up handfuls of them for kids to interact with.
I live in northwest/ central CT and thankfully have never seen even a garter snake! All those scary things can stay south of the Mason- Dixon Line, thank you 😆
We did this in the 70s as kids in Sydney, Australia. We were lifting up flat sandstone rocks. Mainly find blind snakes, geckoes and brown snakes. Great times! 🤠👍
I grew up in the state of Utah and my grandfather is the reason I love many animals. He would occasionally take me up in the mountains to look for snakes from gophers to rattlers, ideally we were looking for a ringneck snake that was found in that area years ago but yet to be confirmed. Unfortunately many shooters had gone to that area where we called the den as there was an abandoned mine for all the snakes to go and hibernate in. After many wildfires and horrible things happening in that mountain range it was bought by the government and going to shoot there was highly illegal now. I really miss the den as I was responsible for finding MANY snakes, I even found a whip snake one time that both my grandfather and I hypothesized that it had escaped from the talons of a bird of prey with it's large scar across it's neck towards the head. But I'm glad that area is protected now as had there of been more wildfires it would of threatened countless homes. We were recently thinking of asking for permission to go on the property but never got a chance to because I had just moved to Minnesota in the last week. I'm going to miss all the racers, gophers, rattlers and whatnot. Also words of advice, NEVER flip anything with your bare hands. Always use something to flip anything flat because you never know what may be under there and if you can be tagged. Even something like a black widow can easily get you if you're unlucky enough.
In the U.K, we only have 3 snakes and one of those [ smooth snake] is rare and local to parts of southern England. Slow worms are legless lizards and the most likely reptile to find under tin after grass snakes and adders which are small vipers and Britain`s only venomous snake. Thanks for this, i found it very interesting -i envy the diversity of all wildlife found in the U.S.
Growing up in Germany I think I have seen like 2 snakes in the wild in my whole life, even living next to a huge nature preserve. No wonder Americans chose a rattle snake for their gadsden flag to emphasise they're opposition to Britain
We visit SC often and even once lived there. Prior to seeing this video, I always looked out over the lowcountry forests and swamps and thought that it looked like snake country. Now I know!
Superb video upload. Fascinated about those harmless snakes you came across. I guess it pays to know your snakes when handling them since some have a tendency to resemble others with a view to be perceived to be a greater threat. The harmless snakes certainly appeared far more agitated than the venomous ones. Enjoyable and entertaining throughout.
Snakes have different personalities, so there are going to be fiesty and some calm. Notice it took big momma canebrakes longer to get agitated than it some of the younger ones. Also venom is hard for snakes to make and as we are not food (and they know it), they prefer to flee over fight. This is generally the truth for most snakes, but yes, there are certain species that can be notorious for being grumpy and/or darty in the non-venomous sphere.
Questions: Are you leaving these tins everywhere, then going back to them? If not, how do you know where to go? And who are the slobs leaving all this stuff just laying arouond? Love the snakes though.
Over here in Ladson, SC. It's amazing how well they camouflage. Always takes me a few seconds after you say you see one before I can find it in the video.
growing up in Ct, I had few encounters with snakes, mostly garters , decay browns . one black racer, no danger...I would like to share a story about the lovely lady I dated some 15 years ago. She grew up in Rural Brasil.No electricity until she was almost 20...She told me many stories about her childhood involving many very dangerous lethal snakes that were part of daily life. I can't verify the particular breeds, however she told me Cobra was portugese for snake. Whenever her peeps would go into the uncleared brush even on horseback they wore thigh high leather snake boots. She never mentioned a human snake fatality ,I would imagine it was just part of life avoiding this lethal hazard for everybody .However she did mention her family German Shepard dying with minutes of being bit by a "cobra" and several horses dead in an hour. The most amazing part of her childhood in my opinion was about "who"s turn it was to go kill a cobra" with a fucking shovel when the chickens would go batshit when a snake came into the cleared home area. Her name is Nicelia , and she is the greatest relationship regret in my lifetime. Cobra stories aside. Any of you snake enthusiasts know what breed she may have been decapitating with a shovel as a child?
Great video guys, and i appreciate that you film these snakes without antagonizing or disturbing them too much. I've watched some videos of some jerks who intentionally antagonize venomous snakes and a few of them have gotten bit by doing so. And as far as I'm concerned, i have no sympathy for them, they got exactly what they deserved.
The Black Snakes we have by me in the Georgia mountains Kill the Copperheads and Rattlesnakes. I've seen them vertically climb trees to get to birds and squirrels. Fast as hell. Catch a Copperhead or Rattlesnake really quick. In the summer heat you see them crossing the roads all the time. When they see people they take off fast.
old aussie myself nice to see people showing the types of snake and not just killing them. love snakes myself and know most times they see you and go their own way most times. even with you flipping their homes they are looking to not be there, their not biting at you or chasing you down. some here will attack and chase you but normally you have to do something to them first before they get that pissed off at you
So many copperheads they multiply so fast. That’s why I I fear them the most. They blend in so well and won’t move unless your on them or a hair away. But by that time they will bite you in defense.
So they don't rattle to warn you?? I loathe snakes!! I'm afraid of every kind. No idea why I keep watching these guys cause the thought of them gives me the Willie's but I'm drawn to it for some reason😬😟🤷♀️ call it fear of the unknown who knows...

I will not be dying of natural geriatric related causes. Natural geriatric related death is painful, unsanitary, degrading, long drawn, and drags someone down with your, usually.
@@indridcold8433 if I live old enough to have major age related issues I'm not dying in a hospital after spending years in medication/treatment hell. If I can't operate on a daily basis without putting my family into crippling debt or having to rely on someone 24/7 then I'm taking a bag of supplies and a gun into the forest and spend some time coming to piece with my death before causing it myself. My wife is supportive of this. I'd rather die with my dignity than put my family through watching me die slowly.
@@dirtyricenova7503 I am in full agreement with your strategy. I already have an extremely rural area picked out where my body will never be found. I knew a man that took ten years to die. He was not living those ten years, he was dying miserably, painfully, and disgustingly. He died in a rented bed in a studio apartment with nothing. Around the five year mark after he had his heart attacks, I was wishing he would have died when the heart attacks happened. Around the end, he told me he wished the would have died ten years earlier. There are far worse things than death. He lived them. I take extremely good care of myself. But I will not be dying of geriatric related causes nor prolonging a miserable death after a major heart attack or after being diagnosed with a terminal illness. I have my own dispatch out of this miserable planet.
@@indridcold8433 you good bro ?
@@dirtyricenova7503 everything alright ?
A friend was visiting her daughter last spring and they decided to take a walk down a dirt road. I guess they were close to the bushy edge of the road and somehow her daughter surprised a copperhead with struck and bit her in the lower leg. She spent several days in hospital and then weeks recovering in bed at home. I also live in an area where copperheads are plentiful and where it's not unusual for people working in their flowerbeds to be bitten.
When I was a kid I played tag with a wild black racer. We chased each other back and forth around the yard for about half an hour before it left and went back to the woods
Awww, that’s cute.
Spent 10 years in coastal SC, herping and fishing. Those big garters don't mess around! I remember some bloody hands from back in the day. Rainbows, muds, racers, red-bellies, eastern kings, more cottonmouths than I could count....but NEVER found a rattlesnake. Worst bite was a determined clamp from an 83-inch yellow rat on the edge of the Ravenel plantation. In FL now and still looking for my first indigo and coachwhip. LOVE your channel!!!! Takes me back to my younger days.
I like how calm the copperheads were compared to the others
Their defense mechanism is to be very still in hopes you think they are leaves. One reason they bite so many people in the south. Rattlesnakes rattle, cottonmouths will be very aggressive hissing and whatnot, but copperhead just try to wait til you leave and get stepped on.
@@davidmendenhall4090 that’s what I was thinking they are trying to stay hidden smart creatures
That garter snake is saying, "don't think that just because I'm not venomous means I'm not aggressive and won't attack you!"
They’re actually venomous. Not enough venom to kill a person though. If you’re allergic to venom though, you might die if you don’t seek medical attention.
recent studies show that garter snakes are indeed venomous.....
Not aggressive. Snakes are ~Defensive~. They will not charge at you, they will look for the easiest way away from you.
They aren't aggresive simply defensive
@@MsCookieli and only mildly venemous and almost impossible to envenomate they would literally need to chew on you for a while even then probably not possible
I had a rattlesnake get in the engine of my truck and when I started driving the damn thing came out by my wipers and started coming up the windshield. I almost wrecked my truck and for the next year if my keys brushed against my knee while driving I'd jump. Lol
This is so great. Capture them on video and photos instead of catching or killing them.😊❤
Should have included non venomous for the fox squirrel graphic 🤣
Lmao
Lol
I thought the SAME thing!🤣
Dont forget the yeeter of pinecones lol
That is the most hilariously aggressive garter snake I've seen in my life 😂
Venomous copperhead just chills and one of the least dangerous wants to fight god over here
@@theslamjamfrincisco2820 the dangerous ones have no need to fear what they can easily kill i suppose.
It’s not the size of the dog in the fight it’s the size of the fight in the dog.
I found an equally aggressive garter snake in California. Prior to that, I had also thought them to be docile. Other snakes I found to be aggressive were western diamond back water snakes and the most aggressive I've ever come across were sidewinder rattle snakes.
@@fionnmaccumhaill3257 Where I live in Northeast Pennsylvania, the only snakes I have found under rocks or plywood have been Eastern Garters, and they either take off or act defensively. I have never seen so much aluminium/tin as there is in this video.
That garter snake was in love with you lol
I am not a fan of snakes growing up in Georgia and almost stepping on one as a kid. Yet I appreciate seeing y'all educate us and your love for nature.
Oh, I’m sorry to hear about that? I’m from South Carolina, but luckily, I love snakes! Was the snake venomous that you almost stepped on?
Being afraid of something, yet valuing what frightens you, is a great thing. A perfect example of where we need to go in life. Thanks Mauricio!

@Lemme Pitts why?
You know your a true animal lover when you call it "love bites" 😂 comment section made me feel better about being so blind with the copperheads. Thanks for showing us all these beautiful guys!
I know he gets tired of the copperheads, but honestly, besides speckled kings, they are in my opinion one of the prettiest snakes. I could watch videos of him finding nothing but copperheads every day. If (and a big if) I ever got into venomous snake keeping, a Copperhead would be the only one I'd keep other than maybe a pygmy.
I used to have rattlesnakes around the barn that my wife rented for her horses. I went and found some black snakes and let them loose at the barn. We now have a bunch of black snakes but nothing else. An old timer told me black snakes will keep away all others. He was right.
Bull snakes eat rattlers
I do that with rat snakes to get rid of squirrels in my attic.
Black snakes lol. It cracks me up when I hear people say that. Argue with people here in NC all the time because they think there's only one "Black Snake" and they also assume every snake in or near the water is a Cottonmouth.
@@blazerwilliams2260 the nc people (I know) know that there are different types of water snakes. People say that water moccasins are the same as cotton mouths. There are different kind of black snakes there’s red belly water snake, Mexican black king snake and more.
@@986avatar2 we know that water moccasins can be venomous but not deadly like cotton mouths.
Flipping tin is an old South Carolina tradition. For many it was a extra means of income as some of the medical facilities would pay for the venomous snakes to help with the development of anti venoms. A lot of the old tin is from where hurricane Hugo tore through the state back in 89.
Makes sense now. Was wondering why theres just random metal in the woods
@@iDayVids need to get out in the woods more and out of the subdivision. Ask permission from the landowner first
Man the copperheads are surprisingly chill.
Copperheads are actually pretty docile and not considered aggressive. As long as you are not on their nest or cornering them they are cool. I have handled them before, as long as you read their current attitude right, they won't try to bite you.
Most times you will pass right by them. They don’t want to fight…… unless you do
most of the copperheads i have met are pretty aggressive. but it really depends on the time of year and weather
@@MrMrsregor It also depends on the locals. If people are killing those that aren't aggressive all you are left with is an aggressive population. Snakes pass down their attitudes to their offspring. It also depends on local predators if they have any major ones too.
simply put, dangerous area=mean snakes
By instinct, they don't believe you can see them. Of course, it's situational. I encountered one that was very defensive and just wanted to be left alone.
You found the maddest eastern garter known to man.
Seriously, never had a garter snake strike at me.
@@chadwhitfield6946🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 that was one ornery snake!!🐍
Those copperheads are amazingly well camouflaged. I couldn’t even see them when you flipped the tin until you zeroed in with the camera. Very interesting! When I was a kid in the ‘60s around Mobile, Alabama, we used to find tons of harmless green snakes. They were beautiful emerald green about the color of the tree frog you highlighted. I suppose those are extinct these days. I know I have not seen one in decades. I wonder if you ever encounter them. It would be nice to know that they’ve managed to survive until today.
Hey, I know your comment is a year old, but I just did a quick google, and these guys seem to be doing really well! They’re called a ‘rough green snake’ or ‘green grass snake’. The ones I saw definitely fit your description, anyway. Hope this helps!
I saw one of those lil emerald green snakes when i was about 13. Not extinct but they are hard to find.
I have found 2 on my property in the low lands of sc/nc.
@@syliic934 Me too! I saw one in Eastern Virginia in the 1970s. It was beautiful.

@@Rexyboygamer-Vlogs LOL
Fun fact: Garter snakes have been found to have a mild venom. It is produced in the back of their mouthes, so it is called rear-fanged venomous. Their venom s not potent enough to be harmful to humans, but don’t think this snake was aware of that fact!🤣❤️🐍
That garter snake was hilarious!!

This brings back so many memories from my youth. We used to do this just about every weekend in the old farmlands above our house here in NC.
I use to find copperheads in Virginia. My folks and I worked for our local SPCA and it was obviously highly important to have the area rid of copperhead. There must have been several times myself and a friend was called to clear them out. But we never killed them only relocated them.
Never seen a video from these guys until now, all I can say is that they have way bigger stones than I ever will
Hahahaha. Bro they gonna get wrecked someday. You never lift tin or anything like it towards yourself, always use the opposite side you're on to lift.
Come to Australia mate and lift the way they lift, you won't live long.
@@chillwinston1255 OMGoodness. I watched a video about snakes in Australia 😳 excuse my language, but FCK NO 😆😳
@@off-gridsimplyhappyrodriguez exactly. We have more venomous snakes here than non venomous. In my backyard right now I guarantee there is an eastern brown. Guarantee it

Didn’t even notice the first copperhead until you zoomed in on it. Crazy how well their camouflage and patterning works. Love snakes
I rewind 5-6 times b4 I could realized where it was b4 they zoomed it. 😳
Gaboon vipers are also scarily camoflauged, but luckily those are only in africa
i like how the copper heads are just so chill
These guys are living my childhood dream, be safe yall!
Holy shitballs I didn’t see any of those copperheads! Thank god I live way up north!
Used to be a favorite pass time with my sister when we were kids. Neither one of us can walk by a piece of plywood or tin now without flipping it lol
My dumbass is terrified of them but still flip for the same reason. Same with my gutter downspouts lol
I live in an area with copperheads and after watching this video I’m scared because I couldn’t see the snakes until you zoomed in on them
Great video. I grew up in NE Ohio, and we went looking for snakes all the time. In our experiences, the garter snakes were always aggressive and always quite big. Still have a scar on my hand from a bite 40 years later. Not a big one, but still there.
Is it bad I couldn’t see the copperhead at first lmao he was so well blended in
Me too man. I had to rewind it a couple times just to see them. Scary, a rattlesnake with no rattle.
Think about how many you have walked near and never even knew they were there lol
@@jaymesjanes6923 oh man. Probably a lot
I have them on my property in the woods and black racers. I used to walk through the woods at night but I stopped after seeing the copperheads. If I need to go through the woods at night I take a flashlight and a walking stick to beat the ground in front of me. 22 years and no bites so far.
@@Mote78 I'm in Arizona and we don't have copperheads. We have 13 different species of rattlesnakes LOL. We have the deadliest in the world here, the Mojave green. But copperheads freak me out cuz they're basically a rattlesnake with no rattle. Is it true that copperheads smell like cucumbers when you get near them? I know that's a dumb question but somebody told me that.
That garter snake said I am danger noodle let me be danger noodle damn it
Ringnecks are one of my favorite snakes! Fun fact, they are venomous & rear fanged. Not real toxic to humans.
When I was on hard times, I used to make money catching rattlesnakes and cottonmouths that I sold to a man I knew who would milk their venom and sell it to a lab that made anti-venom. I made my own snake hiding places to check for snakes. Worked really well. 👍
If you want to continue, you are invited to come to my place in Georgia for as long as you like.
I'll feed you, give you a place to sleep.
😳😱 please. 😆
THIS was my life growing up 🐍 As kids we had a tight group of snake hunting friends... No such thing as video games, cell phones or girls LOL ... All free time was spent ( Snake hunting / flipping everything ) & ( Throwing Rock's at beer bottles ) lined up on the railroad tracks 😜😁😁 GOOD TIMES & we would jump a rail car now & then & ride them a few miles away to the rail yard & walk the tracks, back home .
We've got all four species of venomous snakes (not counting sub species) that live in the US here in South Carolina! We don't flip anything over here, even on Hilton Head Island where i reside. We have snakes everywhere, and alligators as well.
Great video, that garter was crazy! Tons of copperheads, and canes.... Good stuff.
We used to do a lot of landscaping when I was a kid and clean up a lot of lots in north central Texas. Almost every time we'd move plywood, boards, or tin we'd find at least one snake; usually a copperhead. One time we found 3 in a pile of plywood. 2 were under the same board. Best way to find snakes is lay down some tin or plywood and forget about it for 10 months.
Cool I'll try that.
I used to do this all the time when I was a kid. I didn't realize that others did it too. Very cool!
Coming from Ireland we got zero snakes here, old St Patrick sent them all packing, except we still have the odd two legged type. I was surprised at the Garter snake's aggression. I always thought they were like grass snakes and pretty tame mannered. Very interesting video, thanks for making it.
that's what was so funny about her, they're some of the most docile you can find in the wild. Kids will just pick them up and handle them without a care in the world. There's even a cave in Canada where they hibernate in the winter by the thousands, and park wardens will just pick up handfuls of them for kids to interact with.
@@hellsingmongrel yeah I kinda got that was how they should respond. I guess you caught this one after it had its 2 clot shots and booster!
That Garter was nuts! That's how our Northern Water Snakes behave up here in New England, but I've never seen a Garter do that. Lol
I live in northwest/ central CT and thankfully have never seen even a garter snake! All those scary things can stay south of the Mason- Dixon Line, thank you 😆
We did this in the 70s as kids in Sydney, Australia. We were lifting up flat sandstone rocks. Mainly find blind snakes, geckoes and brown snakes. Great times! 🤠👍
I'm looking up Blind snakes.
I hear Australia has some of the most poisonous snakes is this true?
I grew up in the state of Utah and my grandfather is the reason I love many animals. He would occasionally take me up in the mountains to look for snakes from gophers to rattlers, ideally we were looking for a ringneck snake that was found in that area years ago but yet to be confirmed. Unfortunately many shooters had gone to that area where we called the den as there was an abandoned mine for all the snakes to go and hibernate in. After many wildfires and horrible things happening in that mountain range it was bought by the government and going to shoot there was highly illegal now. I really miss the den as I was responsible for finding MANY snakes, I even found a whip snake one time that both my grandfather and I hypothesized that it had escaped from the talons of a bird of prey with it's large scar across it's neck towards the head. But I'm glad that area is protected now as had there of been more wildfires it would of threatened countless homes. We were recently thinking of asking for permission to go on the property but never got a chance to because I had just moved to Minnesota in the last week.
I'm going to miss all the racers, gophers, rattlers and whatnot.
Also words of advice, NEVER flip anything with your bare hands. Always use something to flip anything flat because you never know what may be under there and if you can be tagged. Even something like a black widow can easily get you if you're unlucky enough.
In the U.K, we only have 3 snakes and one of those [ smooth snake] is rare and local to parts of southern England. Slow worms are legless lizards and the most likely reptile to find under tin after grass snakes and adders which are small vipers and Britain`s only venomous snake. Thanks for this, i found it very interesting -i envy the diversity of all wildlife found in the U.S.
Growing up in Germany I think I have seen like 2 snakes in the wild in my whole life, even living next to a huge nature preserve. No wonder Americans chose a rattle snake for their gadsden flag to emphasise they're opposition to Britain
This was totally my past time as a kid out at camp!! Catching snakes, frogs, and lizards.
And crayfish too for me haha
"Your the one that called her a pine snake" 🤣🤣
We visit SC often and even once lived there. Prior to seeing this video, I always looked out over the lowcountry forests and swamps and thought that it looked like snake country. Now I know!
Being from SC I’m proud of our abundant natural tin supply.
Come to Georgia, y'aint seen nothing yet
flipping tins by hand is dangerous with all those copperheads and rattlers.
I am a billionaire y am I watching this guy he's cool
Especially lifting from the front like they did a few times.
Must be the youngest billionaire alive
Yet the Garter Snake was the most aggressive snake on the whole video.
But I agree. I would have lifted the tin with the hook.
Yeah fr. Especially at 9:06
man, that's one lucky rat. dude picked the one bit of tin to hide under that didn't have spicy bois

There were two rats. The first one bolted right away, the other must have been like the rat in the headlights kind of.

That is the problem with Copperheads. They remain perfectly still until you almost step on them. Then they strike.
Geez, they’re camouflaged so well!
Glad to be now living and hiking at high altitude where there are no snakes. No ticks or chiggers either which is also nice:)

These guys did everything to stay safe while in the woods looking for snakes.
Except for staying the fuck out of the woods looking for snakes.
Superb video upload. Fascinated about those harmless snakes you came across. I guess it pays to know your snakes when handling them since some have a tendency to resemble others with a view to be perceived to be a greater threat. The harmless snakes certainly appeared far more agitated than the venomous ones. Enjoyable and entertaining throughout.
Snakes have different personalities, so there are going to be fiesty and some calm. Notice it took big momma canebrakes longer to get agitated than it some of the younger ones. Also venom is hard for snakes to make and as we are not food (and they know it), they prefer to flee over fight. This is generally the truth for most snakes, but yes, there are certain species that can be notorious for being grumpy and/or darty in the non-venomous sphere.
Questions: Are you leaving these tins everywhere, then going back to them? If not, how do you know where to go? And who are the slobs leaving all this stuff just laying arouond? Love the snakes though.
Man the copperheads are so hard to see on video. It’s absolutely amazing how well camouflaged they are.
Yea from a distance they look like a pile of leaves
Over here in Ladson, SC. It's amazing how well they camouflage. Always takes me a few seconds after you say you see one before I can find it in the video.
growing up in Ct, I had few encounters with snakes, mostly garters , decay browns . one black racer, no danger...I would like to share a story about the lovely lady I dated some 15 years ago. She grew up in Rural Brasil.No electricity until she was almost 20...She told me many stories about her childhood involving many very dangerous lethal snakes that were part of daily life. I can't verify the particular breeds, however she told me Cobra was portugese for snake. Whenever her peeps would go into the uncleared brush even on horseback they wore thigh high leather snake boots. She never mentioned a human snake fatality ,I would imagine it was just part of life avoiding this lethal hazard for everybody .However she did mention her family German Shepard dying with minutes of being bit by a "cobra" and several horses dead in an hour. The most amazing part of her childhood in my opinion was about "who"s turn it was to go kill a cobra" with a fucking shovel when the chickens would go batshit when a snake came into the cleared home area. Her name is Nicelia , and she is the greatest relationship regret in my lifetime. Cobra stories aside. Any of you snake enthusiasts know what breed she may have been decapitating with a shovel as a child?
The garter at 4:20 doesn’t agree about being harmless.
A defender indeed. Good post.
Yea 420
She identifies as a mamba!🤣
420!
“Bröther!”
Great video guys, and i appreciate that you film these snakes without antagonizing or disturbing them too much.
I've watched some videos of some jerks who intentionally antagonize venomous snakes and a few of them have gotten bit by doing so.
And as far as I'm concerned, i have no sympathy for them, they got exactly what they deserved.
The Black Snakes we have by me in the Georgia mountains Kill the Copperheads and Rattlesnakes. I've seen them vertically climb trees to get to birds and squirrels. Fast as hell. Catch a Copperhead or Rattlesnake really quick. In the summer heat you see them crossing the roads all the time. When they see people they take off fast.
Cool!
Cool, I wouldn't use my bare hands to lift up the tins though lol
So anyways I just started blastin’
I was waiting for “Fox Squirrel: extremely venomous”
"Your the one who called her a pine snake". That's why she attacked, she took offense to that.😂

old aussie myself nice to see people showing the types of snake and not just killing them. love snakes myself and know most times they see you and go their own way most times. even with you flipping their homes they are looking to not be there, their not biting at you or chasing you down. some here will attack and chase you but normally you have to do something to them first before they get that pissed off at you
So many copperheads they multiply so fast. That’s why I I fear them the most. They blend in so well and won’t move unless your on them or a hair away. But by that time they will bite you in defense.
So they don't rattle to warn you??
I loathe snakes!! I'm afraid of every kind. No idea why I keep watching these guys cause the thought of them gives me the Willie's but I'm drawn to it for some reason😬😟🤷♀️ call it fear of the unknown who knows...
I found a very hefty eastern garter snake in my yard a while back that was probably bigger than that angry girl. Mine was definitely in a better mood.
Oh. My. God. This is how I spent my childhood. Love it.
Damn some of those snakes blend in so good.
