I live in southern ohio on 86 acres and in 46 years ive only seen 1 timber rattler which i knew was a very rare find. And 2 copperheads. I know they are there but they do a good job staying out of site
Came across a northern Timber while hiking in Mohican State Park it decided to tag my leather hiking boot didn't get me but still scared the hell out of me this is what happens when you don't watch for your hiking
Just right next door in Pennsylvania there are tons of rattlesnakes they're in Ohio as well be careful I know young Mennonite boy that almost lost his arm from a rattlesnake bite he was very lucky
We had a small (2ft) rat snake in the yard sunbathing. My daughter accidently stepped on it and it tagged her foot. She had boots on though so no harm done. Mr snake was fine too, and we relocated him away from where the kids were playing. We dont mind the rat snakes at all. Having them around is beneficial to control the rodents. I have never encountered a venomous snake in ohio, but im always aware they are here.
snakes have a place in life. they eat the mice that carry ticks. I have been hit twice in my life by rattlesnakes and not wanting another. first one was the worst, it must have juiced me up good. 2nd one had some of the same things going on but i stayed a little more calm then the first one. I think that helped.
This actually eased my fear of running into a venomous snake like a rattler or a copperhead(I have an immense fear of copperheads) because I live in northern Ohio :D I love snakes, especially the red belly(it’s beautiful) but I’m still fearful of them
To see a copperhead in northern Ohio is extremely rare. I've caught hundreds of snakes here but never any venomous. You have probably mistaken a watersnake, they have that triangle head.
"Fangs are to short to hurt you" lol. I'm from Michigan and if you get tagged by that little snake you'll wish you were dead! I have a friend who was bitten on the fore arm and he spent three day's in the hospital.
Jenny Richards. My wife has known her all her life, I've known her 32 years. One the the sweetest ladies we every met. Lived in southern Ohio all my life I drive through Shawnee forest daily I catch 2 to 3 rattlesnakes a year on the roads show them to people and let go where I found them. The biggest one 58" and as thick as a mans forearm.
I encountered a pigmy rattlesnake near Loveland oh around 1950. Also along the bike trail near Orgonia Oh. There was a nest of them along the bike trail when they were building it and the moved them before opening the bike trail to the public. I think this was about 15-20 years ago. These locations are in southern oh.
I have lived in Ohio my whole life and I go water snake herping all the time in the local creeks and wetlands and I have never seen a massasauga rattlesnake now that I know I can find one here in Ohio if anyone knows how to find one let me know I’d love to get a picture of one
moslah marwen most of them have a mild venom compared to eastern / western rattlesnake found in the southern states but yes you can be killed but it is unlikely, you can lose fingers or maybe a leg tho if it bites it
@@noahrhoads every body reacts differently to bee stings, flu vaccines, and snake bites (to name a few) A garter snake has a very mild venom that can cause some people to have a terrible reaction. Hard to know how anybody will react to a rattlesnake bite. You'd hope that where you sought treatment had the antivenom so that treatment would be as prompt as possible.
@@614outbackboys9 no you haven't. You can simply look in the ohio department of wildlife's website and you would know they arent native to ohio. Nowhere close either. You were mistaken.
Copperheads are the easiest to identify yet the victims of the most miss-identification! Growing up everyone always said they killed copperheads weedeating.
You would have to stick your finger into the back of it's mouth and let it chew on you for a while...and then it would only sting! And probably get infected 😂 venomous to 🐸 may as well throw the Garter snake in the mess also then......
@@vadaminot429 if your allergic to bees and such they can send you into shock but like you said they would have to chew for a while. Also ive never seen one actually bite. They just huff and puff and strike with their mouth closed all the time. If they arent playing dead. Otjer than the ringhals of africa they play dead the best.
Very good presentation!
I'm fine with the garters in ny yard just wish would learn ti keep their heads down when i mow

Found a Copperhead mom & nest in my parents' backyard in Springfield around 5 years ago.

Their bites still hurt a tad. Lol.
Lived in morrow county. Saw bunches.

Yes!!!!

That’s probably a good thing. Snakes are good to observe at a distance

no copperheads in norther ohio
Nice not many girls like 🐍 snakes i only seen a few
They Found a timber At Tappan Lake 5 yrs ago way north of where they say they are and it was 5 feet long..

Yeah that wasnt correct. Those lil bastards could kill a child or old person if they tagged them on the hand or somewhere where skin is exposed.
I’m moving to Ohio and becoming a park ranger…what was her name again?

Has anyone ever witnessed a copperhead in clermont county? They say they are here but ive never seen one.
Back in the “80”’s the park rangers kept a copperhead in a terrarium at the check in station to Stonelick Lake campground.
Can you do another one about all the wild snakes in ohio 🤔
I heard the odnr released rattlesnakes in knox county.
🙄
why would they do that? probably urban legend.

Now they are endangered ☹️
Pygmy rattlesnakes dont live anywhere close to ohio.

Hayden [GD] killdeer plains has the most in Ohio
thanks
hey Cz418 do you know about Anita Finch from fatal attractions
Go to northern ohio and look around lakes and marshlands
dont we have water moccasins in Ohio or cotten mouths?
Yea
Rob Zombeh my bad
@ rob z we do I have seen them
@@braydenlawhon1125 you don't have them according to the dnr, etc. next time you see one, takes it's photo. They don't attack, if not provoked.
@diana thank you I’m sorry
She lost me at an 8ft rat snake! I'm staying out the woods.
Had to shoo of a 10 foot rat snake out of my yard. It climbed a tree.
Bro the grow to 15 ft. But they won’t bite. I pick the up
Lol…I’ve got a 7 foot one that lives in my shed. They’re very calm, not confrontational snakes. Like all snakes, they just want to be left alone.
@@cartermccauley7352 15 ft…..that’s funny
@@williamsporing1500 that’s what google says I ain’t seen them taller than 9
Eastern Coral Snakes don’t exist in Ohio?
Nowhere close. Far too cold.
I'd give her the one eyed purple headed spitting cobra
I've known Jenny 32 years she like's snakes not earth worms.
I have never seen any of these snakes. :( I love snakes though! :)
As I do Dj.
I am living in Ohio Portsmouth, can these snakes kill humans ?
moslah marwen most of them have a mild venom compared to eastern / western rattlesnake found in the southern states but yes you can be killed but it is unlikely, you can lose fingers or maybe a leg tho if it bites it
Not if you cook them thoroughly 😉
A timber could kill you if you didnt get the bite treated. But not likely. Its also very rare to see one. They like the dense woods.

What about a cottonmouth?
very rare this far north
They dont live anywhere close to us. Too far north.
@@72RR446 not rare, more like nonexistent. They dont live anywhere within a hundred miles of ohio.
@@williamhickey9200 actually i would have to disagree i have had a few encounters with them in central ohio where i have lived for 19 years

You forgot the king cobra!
In O.H.I.O!
This comment is obviously satire because you know king cobras don’t live in the usa

She gets excited ! Wonder what she thinks about a spitting viper white snake ?
She gets excited about snakes 😘
Yeah, I think she's hot.
This video made me uncomfortable
You forgot one! The eastern hognose. While they are not dangerous they are slightly venomous

Do they live In Ohio

Same here. Lol.
i can keep the rodents out myself,,snake enters my yard,,it's dead! period!
Have fun in prison when youre caught. All of our venemous species are endangered and protected. Fucking asshole.
Dumb! I NEVER kill any snake, that's horrible they are here for a reason you simpleton
We'd be better off without any of these.
Snakes are beneficial they eat rodents and certain insect pests.
