Hey just wanted to let you know that your channel does have some real life effect. I'm not any kind of naturalist, but a couple days ago I was hiking with a group of people, including a 3 year old, and we ran across a snake. Based on your channel and previous r/whatisthissnake comment checks, I was able to identify the snake as a common watersnake almost instantly, and not a cottonmouth. Set everyone at ease immediately and the kid (and me too!) was so happy to see a snake in the wild. Also, clarification, no one got within biting distance, but it just relieved the tension to know that no one was in immediate danger. Floyd County Ga.

I’ve commented in the past that this is why I started watching . I’ve always had a fear of snakes and it’s helped me immensely to be able to identify snakes and put my mind at ease. My neighbor came to me last week all upset saying I have a snake on my back screen porch. I identified it as a black racer and for the first time in my life I picked up a snake because I wasn’t scared anymore. So this channel helps to preserve snakes so irrational people don’t just kill them.

Copperhead #2’ the pinky one, what a stunning variation on those often seen. Gorgeous!

dude lives the best life just finding animals.

Hi Noah!!! I absolutely love your videos.after a hard day at work it really makes my day when I come home and watch one of your new videos! Thank you!

I truly enjoy these when I'm on the boat out in the gulf missing my Texas hills.

"I'm being chased."

Awesome finds the copperhead under the rock was cool

That softshell is huge !

WOW, thanks for saving that awesome turtle. I saved a giant one in the middle of busy traffic. Fortunately had a big shovel in the truck. A nice man jumped out of his truck and took the shovel. Way too heavy for a girl to lift 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳

Awesome stuff per usual. I loved the big female softshell. Also, I really liked the common snapper. I very rarely find them at any size besides hatchling or large adult. It's quite rare that I find one in between those 2 stages of growth. Also SMOKIN' kingsnake. Thanks bro-ther. Catch you on the flip-side. Richard and Heather from Arkansas

Man how u seen that turtle on the drive by just confirmed u are the best at what u do. Me and my daughter have been attempting to find turtles the past month or 2 and have only found one in our yard but we have a lot of fun searching. Definitely need to up our turtle game

"I'm being chased!" he says mockingly as the Cottonmouth tongue flicks at him like, "Bro..." It's funny how much I've learned about our native venomous snakes watching this channel. All the stories I heard growing up, about Cottonmouths, Copperheads and Corals have turned out to be lies. This channel is very educational for those of us in GA. Thank you for the great videos!

I live in southern Alabama and don’t see many snakes, occasionally a rattler but I have 10 captive bred pet snakes that are setup in bioactive enclosures. 3 ball pythons, 4 corns , and 3 California red sided garters

Love the video!

Great video

This was my childhood in Arkansas

Dang that is the most chill rubberback (spiny softshell) I’ve ever seen, up here in MN that turtle would’ve tagged you big time… maybe she was heading to that creek to lay her eggs somewhere 🤷

7:36 😂😂😂😂😂

that spiny softshell was an insane find!

Oh man that softshell... wow! She must have been pretty old to get that big... 10+ years I would think...maybe 20 years possibly? So cool. Loved the face on the little common snapper... they are just so chonky no matter what age. Good run of snakes too!

Very nice softshell turtle, Lampropeltis and large copperhead.

The biodiversity where you live seems to be in pristine condition, great video as usual.

Those soft shells are all over lake Lanier All over our little fishing hole up in the Gainesville area Pretty cool turtles

Thanks again 👍

Great finds 🐍🐢🐸

I did not realize cottonmouths were that far north.

Nice herpin! 👍

I did it all my life up till about 20 years ago it runs in my family

I enjoy the videos bro keep up the awesome job i have 2 rat snakes crawling around my yard one climbed a tree never seen that before lol

I'd love it if you did a video dedicated to turtles, I love them so much

Was wondering if you could point out what makes a snake a rat snake, or a corn snake, or milk snake. What are the distinquished features that set them off from each other?

I’ve never seen a soft shell in a creek that rocky.

- [ ] I use a heavy and long gauge belt conveyor roll for the same reason you find under ground snakes in Georgia… - [ ] I live in southern Virginia; However think it - [ ] Could become a faster hack finding fossorial snakes but maybe not as good for king snakes and pit vipers? Please let me know if you are aware of this method. If not I would be happy to donate a small sample supply to your channel!

Hi Noah

!!! superlative adjective : snakiest !!!

😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊

Noah what’s the farthest up in North Georgia have you seen a cottonmouth? DNR says they don’t exist past Atlanta- but they also say neither do armadillos or mtn lions lol I have pictures of both of those

Hey Noah! What kind of ebike are you riding?

Is there an easy way to identify if a snake is venomous or harmless at a glance?

I was worried you were going to leave ringnecks out😢

Have you found a short-tailed snake before?

Good question but I doubt it. I've never seen one on YT period. I even posed that question to NKFherping a year or so ago. Got no reply. Apparently they are very rarely seen and are also protected by law from capture of harassment.

I have not, but I also haven’t really spent much time in their habitat. They’re high on the list of snakes I want to see though, so soon hopefully!

without the artificial cover to find snakes, how hard are they to locate?

They’re harder in some places, but in other areas like deserts it’s much easier to find snakes hiking washes or crossing roads at night.

Happy Pride Month bruh! Hope you had ridiculous time!

Annoying dangerous snakes at night with exposed toes. 🤔
