    The two snakes I left off the list are cottonmouth snakes and pygmy snakes. We also have coyotes but they're super timid and rarely ever approach humans. One animal that isn't deadly but you will run into a lot is skunks. They might not kill you but if you get sprays or (more likely) your dog does, you will wish you were dead. What do you think? In fact, what did you think of my presentation? This was the first video where I didn't use a teleprompter with a prewritten script. I used an outline. Saved me a lot of hours in writing but also added more time to editing out my screw-ups. Anyway...I hope you liked the video. Please comment with your thoughts below.

      I think it's fine not using a teleprompter especially if it saves a lot of time. I remember wild boars from Germany, they used to chase us on our bikes and are definitely not fun !

      1 in 5 striped skunks has rabies and will not show symptoms nor will they die from it, they've developed a genetic immunity, along with the chances of airborne exposure, and their wide range skunks are a larger threat in Tennessee than the spiders we have

      ​@sethferguson5000 yes a pack of coyotes will come after you normally If it's just one they will run away unless it's got rabies

    The Florida Panther is in Tennessee, It has migrated from Florida and has been found all the way up to Maine. Also Timber Wolves are also in Tennessee near the North Carolina boarder.

    I think this blog is more a promotion of East Tennessee wildlife. If you see an Elk or a Red Wolf, be
    sure to photograph it and post it. You will be a hero. In 78 years, I have only seen two copper head
    snakes and one Timber Rattle Snake. I have seen dozens of Black Snakes. I have timberland and
    river front property in East Tennessee. I have seen one Red Wolf in Grainger Co., TN. I have also
    seen a half dozen Wildcats. Frankly, I have seen more bears, wildcats and panthers in Naples, FL
    and Python Snakes than I have ever seen in Tennessee.

    Great list, also hear the American Alligator thar go 13ft 660lbs are migrating to TN from the southern states due to changing patterns, Also the mosquito and Kissing Bug and Ticks. Thinking a sidearm and snake boots are a must in the woods with some bug and bear spray...😂

    You left off a few snakes and forgot that panthers, mountain lion, cougars, and screamers are all the same thing. The Florida panther is the only subspecies of cougar native to the southeastern united States that still exists, the ones currently being found in Tennessee are most likely of the western subspecies due to the fact that the majority of confirmed sightings have been in west and middle Tennessee and the fact that the last eastern mountain lion in Tennessee was killed in the early 1920s and were declared nationally extinct 12 years ago. East Tennessee mountain lions are about as real as the red wolf packs they claim still roam cades cove and clingmans dome area

      @@BenBarredo not a problem!😁 Always do proper research before making posts like this, misinformation is a danger to wildlife and in a state where many of our native species are at risk of bein lost forever it is important now more than ever that we give accurate information and teach best management practices to everyone who is now deciding to call this great state home so we can preserve it and restore it!

      No. The biggest reptile we have in TN is probably the black snake which is a constrictor, non-poisonous, and in fact, most farmers like them on their property to keep mice away.
