Oh no! Glad you got your dog help thanks for the update praying 🙏🏻 for this situation.

Thanks you for the saving life information.

the ones in Michigan are much smaller... that thing is huge! I loved them as a kid.

I thought the “nubs” he was talking about were the two things on his tail area and I was very confused on how those would become his wings, watched the whole video before I realized I was looking at the wrong “nubs”

if spongebob was a spider

Absolutely beautiful Rattlesnake. I live in Ohio, and these snakes are quite rare. So many people kill them on site. I wish people would call someone to remove the snake and stop killing them. Most of the time, people will find out that these animals will not bother people if they just leave them alone. Most people who are bitten by venomous snakes are usually bitten because they are trying to kill the snake or they are aggravating it.

I've seen better

As a kid, I use to catch and clean them. Very tasty Grew to just love them and stopped eating them Please don’t run over them

I live on the Canadian Prairies, and we have these nasty little suckers here too. Rule #1, leave them the f*&% alone.

Thanks but no thanks!

Ive sat next to one on a rock on the banks of the Upper Gauley in West Bygod Virginia and ate my bologna sammich and he never moved. Liked the warm rock as much as I did.. I have never met an aggressive one anywhere in Appalachia and I have seen hundreds of them.

Pleasure meeting you a few days ago, and we enjoyed learning from you while at the museum!

Why is Slater from Saved by the Bell out catching snapping turtles? School project?

I caught one when I was probably 6 or 7 and pushed it up the creek bank and sat there face to face with it. I think back and realize how lucky I was not to get disfigured by that brute. He kept his head in his shell the whole time!

These are all over here in Florida and so beautiful to look at

Beautiful critter. I would hold it.

I noped out of several nature walks after seeing those in Gainesville, Florida.

Spiders can sometimes be cute

Loves fighting

Saw one of these the other day on another video. Pretty neat.

I have saved a many a turtle in my 73 years on highways after heavy rains ! Five snapping turtles out of many others !

Looks a lot like a wondering spider.

I used to take the shovel to them because that's what we did as I grew up, but I became unafraid of them after picking a few up with a grabber and giving them to my neighbor's barn. Now I just shew them off or carry them next door, they get into my attic no matter how much I try to block it off, and the house is tight so if a mouse can get in, so can a snake. They are chasing the mice up there so it okay I guess, knock on wood I've never seen one inside, only skins in the attic. They are actually real pretty animals once I saw them up close and seem real docile. They just want to be left alone, and several people have told me they will run off copperheads and rattlers here in Virginia, is that a fact?

Poisonous snakes have a bad reputation?? Hard to believe-

That's great that you admire the Copperhead so much. Why not let him bite you so you can see first-hand how it feels and what the repercussions are? Then you can say you were bitten by a beautiful snake. Do it! Take one for the team so we can share your enthusiasm for such a beautiful creature. Then move on to the water moccasin. Do a video!

Honestly these videos are not right. Because kids will see this and next time they see a snake they will try an pick it up and then the child will get bit.

The coolest snake in the world. I constantly find them in my firewood pile. A gentle snake if handled right…I have had them wrap around my arm and just stare at me while I sit having a beer. Lol.. very curious snake for the most part…Not a palmetto bug in sight thanks to these guys…

great video, could you do one on the red shouldered hawk sometime?

Welp not going to north carolina

Thanks!

They do not chase. So many crack heads comment on this

I watched one fish in Lehigh Parkway Allentown today. I thought about his long legs. He was active. I love them

I always learn cool new info with every video. I have tried to photograph glass lizards in situ and they are very wary and quick. I'm going to guess the next genus- Anaxyrus. I struggle to tell an American from a Fowlers from a Southern toad even when I can see the markings, so I'm not going to species level.

that dude is very handsome

I enjoy this video. Thanks. I found one today and it freaked me out but this video helps to calm my anxiety lol

Great stuff Ben, eastern glass lizards have to be some of the coolest lizards in the country, and it’s always a treat to get one in hand in the wild. Lots of good info in here, as usual you deliver so much value in so little time. We could take some notes on that… nice work!

😊🙏 Thank You for more info like this ... Many learn to live in harmony with these scary looking but non-venomous Golden Orb Weaver spiders in their forest parks! 🌷🌿🌏✌💜🕊

Dude , stop lying . That snake will make you meet Jesus real fast ! I grew up in NC hunting , trapping and fishing .

Can you pick them up with a hand grabbing the shell just behind the head, and the other hand by the tail?

She’s so cuuuuuute ❤

I like looking at them, but definitely do not want one on me.

Golden orb weavers. Everywhere here in Florida, their silk really does look like gold in the morning dew.

My personal life experience tells me that these snakes are very dangerous. They are camouflaged so well that when my friend's grandmother got bit by one, 2 other people almost got bit because they couldn't see it even knowing right where it was. She almost lost an arm. It swelled up like a balloon. According to her, the arm was never right again. My uncle, who was logging, got bit by one he had tissue death and lost his hand. The only 2 people I've ever known who got bit, both had a very negative experience with it. I don't think I've ever heard a copperhead bite compared to a bee sting. Maybe my life experience is anecdotal, maybe the bite is not that bad in most cases. But from what I've seen, it can be very devastating even if it does not kill you.

Definitely dangerous.

I didn't get fooled!! Good info, Ben.

It will look better as a pair of boots. 😂

Gosh I've been trying to film these but they take off so soon! Great video!

Overpopulated here in Ohio.. kids can’t even pond swim. They taste great. Parts taste like shrimp. Parts taste like chicken and other parts taste like lobster

Great video man!

Happy for you Ben i have been watching you for years your going to do great things. Thanks for taking us along for the ride keep making videos
