Thank you man, I seen one of those black snakes two weeks ago but I didn’t know it wasn’t dangerous.

Slits in the eye does not mean they’re venomous, it just means they come out at night time Slit pupils: They come out at night time Round pupils: They come out at day time

It depends on where you're from. Copperheads and rattlesnakes are the only snakes to potentially worry about in Connecticut, and they are the only ones with slit pupils. But, it's not a world-wide universal by any means.

The eye rule isn't always accurate. Some venomous snakes have round eyes and some non-venomous have slitted eyes. Better of using the scales on the tail.

In north America the only venomous snakes with round eyes in the copper head. Fun fack allot of "safe non venomous " like the hog nose is actually rear fanged but wouldn't be any more painful to a bee sting and would have to " chew" to get you

@@dwightyost1606 Copperheads have vertical slits for pupils, not rounded ones. I take wildlife photos in my spare time and have many photos of them. Some water snakes resemble copperheads, are non-venomous, and have round pupils. Maybe you have one of them mixed up with a copperhead. Where we live in NC, the only venomous snake here with round pupils is the coral snake.

@cranstonsnord4334 your right my mistake and it was the water snake

I loved the video. Made my day. Thanks!

My favorite native to North Carolina snake. So helpful and good natured. Love em. Not happy when they go after the birds.

You don’t want to hold that rat snake by it’s neck you can calm it down and bare handle it if it bite no problem also at some points when you held it at the neck it was fully capable of turning around and bite but it was calm enough not to

King Snakes are super cool as well.

love your video, very reasonable and comprehensible,, I've wanted to identify a snake, probably I should be keeping it, but I cant share the picture here, from Nigeria

I found a skin under my. stove.. found the scales go from single to double... so should be like a. rat snake or a blur racer?? I'm in North Louisiana

Your so great!!!

Thank you so very much

That's the Black Rat Snake.

What would u recommend for a first time snake owner?

There is an exception like black mamba have pupil eyes too watch out!! best is to ask the snake if you’re venom or not

Round pupils (at least in Thailand) are 100% NO indication if a snake is venemous...

Black Mambas have round pupils and are one of the deadliest in the world.

Info is not correct!I have a ball python and he has so called “Venomous eyes “ but really round eyes means the are awake in the day and slit eyes mean they are nocturnal.

If you're concerned about rats, chickens will do a better job of getting rid of them.

Tell the Cobra he isn't venomous because his pupils are round. There are several venomous snakes with round pupils, if any are here in NC, no clue, but that was some misinformation. Pretty sure the water snakes all have round pupils, but too lazy to check lol.

Cool snake

Thanks I am going out to the desert so I need to know

can they eat normal cooked meat? Or just raw meat? Because I don’t have a rodent infestation 😭

The way you handle that poor snake is so wrong,grabbing by the head it's not necessary at all since it's a very calm specie

I realize this is an old video but just to be clear for anyone stumbling across this. Everything he says about IDing venomous snakes is wrong. These are myths that could get very dangerous for people who believe them. The presence of venom glands has nothing to do with pupil shape or scale configuration. The only way to tell a venomous snake is to identify the species in the region you're in. There is no tell-tail sign that venomous or non-venomous snakes share. As an added bonus: please don't pin a snakes head if you don't know what you're doing. Snakes have very fragile skulls and spines which often break when someone like this is trying to pin them down.

@@summitenvironmentalsolutions Hey Summit, I appreciate your response. I'm sure he's very experienced and my guess is the information he gave is true for your region. The danger here is that KZread views are worldwide. There are many highly venomous snakes with paired subcaudle scales including the Mamba the Boomslang and the Puff Adder. You can also pick any venomous snake that is diurnal (they hunt during the day) and you'll see round pupils because pupil shape has to do with their vision - It has nothing to do with the presence of venom glands. There is lots of misinformation all over the internet about snakes and I normally don't worry too much about it and try to just give correct information on my channel. I do speak up though when I see these specific myths promoted because it could be very dangerous for the person encountering a venomous snake or it could be dangerous for the animal when somebody kills a harmless snake that they believe to be venomous. Again these rules might be true in your specific region. If I made the statement on my channel that all venomous snakes have rattles that would be true in my region. I live in California and the only venomous snake (that's dangerous to humans) in this area is a rattlesnake. I would hate for someone on the East Coast to believe that rule and then go pick up a copperhead.

That being said, that looks like an eastern rat snake, which are (usually) fairly handleable, so holding the neck is often unnecessary and stress-inducing -- it might actually be the entire reason the snake will bite. Even if it did bite, it would probably be considerably less stressful to the human than the neck hold.

You can't 100% tell that it is non venomous by a pupil and same as the shape of the head

So basically be kind of an herpetologist? Better not take any chances.

Not thrilled with the way he holds the snake. Can cause real damage to the snake. The round pupils info is sketchy at best.

Please do not handle snakes like this man is showing! Snakes are fragile, and you can injure them by grasping them at the neck and/or tail. If you want to pick up a snake, support the body and hold it gently around the middle or back third. If you are gentle, most snakes will eventually calm down, especially if you simply let them climb on your hands like they’re branches.
