You must have thrown that box down mighty hard. Wouldn't be the 1st time some Wolf killed a snake. :wink:I had a Cottonmouth come after me once. I don't know what he was thinking, but I don't think he expected the 20 rounds of 7.62x39. :biggrin2:

No Wolf there. It was some of that gummy stuff from Gonnajamaftertwelveroundsastan that Polish college kids in the early 90's were selling on the street corner for $9.99 per crate.You must have thrown that box down mighty hard. Wouldn't be the 1st time some Wolf killed a snake. :wink:
Probably adrenaline? I would do the same thing. Better safe than sorry.No Wolf there. It was some of that gummy stuff from Gonnajamaftertwelveroundsastan that Polish college kids in the early 90's were selling on the street corner for $9.99 per crate.
I was surprised that I actually emptied the clip.
Thanks for the advice! Course, to do that, I'd have to get somebody to hold my "I'm Stupid" sign!I posted about venomous snakes not climbing trees, I was told this by my snake handling neighbor, he also told me about the color going all the way around so this fact may also not be true. If you see a snake with a white belly, don't pick it up, it may be venomous. non venomous snakes will still bite you. Small snakes are more dangerous than large snakes because larger snakes are more lethargic and a smaller snake will empty all his venom in one bite while a larger one will hold some back for the 2nd bite. (also told to me by my snake handling neighbor).
Growing up on the Tennessee River, I killed a 6 foot cottonmouth as a kid.....is that big?
In my neck of the wood those are called Rattle-Head Copper Moccasins.You forgot about the dreaded 'Copper Headed Water Rattler'....
If it was really a cottonmouth, it would be close to a world record. I had a buddy on the fire dept in Orlando that caught one tht was right at 6' long, he thought it might be a record, but Bill Haast in Miami told him that the record was a little over 6' long. Bobby, who was kinda different decided to keep it and try to grow it to world record size. He would put it in the bathtub to feed it, frogs, mice, fish, etc. He had a lot of interesting stuff happen to him with that snake, but the snake died of dehydration after a few months.
This should fit just about any similar story you might have. You're welcome.My wife threw (insert cool, yet bizarre thing you had when you were single) away...
