Anyone good with snake ID??? Not sure how these 2 pics will turn out...took and loaded with my droid....so if they are bad, I will have to load them from my pc later....
The snake was found in NC...obviously on the beach...but I think it was out of place due to the hurricane tides....didn't look like a sea snake...to me...
Its tail looked like it was cut off at on point...
Body was large..very thick snake....head was large and to me, looks like a viper head....and he tried striking me many times...very agressive...
I caught another simiar but smaller in my cast net in some brackish water and showed a biologist in training....
Only thing I can find that looks like it is a cotton mouth....she, going by the book, told me no, they are fresh water....not salt water and aren't really barrier island species blah blah blah....I told her the water in the marshes is hardly salt water and is mostly rain water and its not far fetched...cotton mouths are fairly common on the mainland....
Anyway, hope the pics turn out and hope someone knows what it is.....look at the snake....not the sand...I truely believe it was 100% out of place...I found a smooth(I think) green snake on the beach today and I don't think he belonged either...
Green snake...he was awesome lookin! I never seen one in the wild and in person!
