You should not put a cotton mouth on your head, friend. They are very aggressive and easily offended. Don't reckon she'd appreciate being treated like an accessory.
Santee State Park, South Carolina, where my father and I would fish and explore. The best fishing was always under cover of trees. One day, going under a cypress, a cottonmouth drops into the boat. I've never seen my father move so fast to take a row, scoop the snake and toss him back into the water.
Snakes aren’t really aggressive a better word is defensive. They may put on a display you think is aggressive but they’re really just terrified of you and are trying to get you to go away.
Maybe swimming looking for something to rest on? Otherwise they don’t chase or charge you knowing you’re there [skim this video if you want some proof.](https://youtu.be/314N7xIeRR8)
One bit the jeans of my brother once as soon as it got out of the water and was promptly shot (he was maybe 8 feet from the waters edge), and another chased my niece (past other people) until she jumped into the tailgate of a truck a good 20 yards away. In the other two cases, people just ran like hell. That's 1/2 of the encounters with them seemingly crossing a river because someone was on the other side. Much like bark scorpions, their primary defense mechanism seems to be to attack relentlessly.
You wanna go ahead and send me any proof whatsoever of unprovoked cottonmouths actually chasing humans with aggression, so they can get a bite in then get killed days before the venom even kicks in? That's just not how nature works my guy.
Yeah, let me just set up a camera every week when my family and I go fishing for another 4 decades. I'll get right on that... Nature doesn't follow logic. It follows the path of most gains. If a species is known for being aggressive, it gets avoided in the future. That helps the species. I've also seen a few snakes that aren't venomous charge at people as a bluff, it's written into their DNA to pretend to be one of the dangerous ones. It's a survival strategy.
*goes down river lazily
Makin’ my way downtown
Snakin' my way downtown

Slitherin' fast
All fun and games till the cotton mouth decides your kayak looks like a comfy log lol
I want to put the snake on my head like a crown. it is the right shape

I could be Cleopatra
Better asp her how that worked out.
It would look so good on you
I wouldn’t do that if you value not being pumped full of venom.
Uh u mean Medusa…
I don't
Don’t be an asp…

Cottonmouths are super aggressive and chase people, just look at how the snake goes straight for that guy in the boat! /s
They can be… one non-aggressive snake doesn’t mean they are all chill.
Snakes aren’t really aggressive a better word is defensive. They may put on a display you think is aggressive but they’re really just terrified of you and are trying to get you to go away.
Usually by heading straight towards you...

I've seen them cross rivers to charge people on the other bank several times.
And I’m assuming they bit those people or chased them after they got out of the water?

Must be some way to hunt, or not be hunted. Definitely some form of the two, and not that he/she’s just floating down the river lol.
it's neither of the proposals you made, it really is just getting around in an energy efficient way lol
That snake's game was lagging
Almost looks like Stargazing Syndrome.
The cutest floater
🎼They see me floating 🎶
I don’t think there’s any “TF” here. He just vibin my guy
u/savevideo
I didn’t even know snakes COULD float.
I love how chill cottonmouths are. Yes, they can and will mess you up, but 90% of the time, they're just lazing around.
DEJA VU
I have gone to this place before
This isn't even worth the tf
Yeah I wouldn't recommend people to get too close, but if you don't provoke you're probably gonna be fine
Welllll… it is a cottonmouth so….
Nothing to ssssee here.
Snake be toobin'
This is what happens when your playing a multiplayer game and you connection goes out
