Y’all like snakes? Me? I think they are weird and just leave them alone. But sometimes you just see a cottonmouth looking for food and you have a camera. Maybe I just spend a lot of time outdoors.
But I think this is the best shot of a cottonmouth, or any snake, that I’ve ever gotten.

#AgkistrodonConanti, the #FloridaCottonmouth; #MonroeCounty, #Florida (13 March 2023). Though venomous, cottonmouths are anything but aggressive (despite popular mythology). They're deliberative, cautious, and stubborn at times, but they're very far from being aggressive!

Anything but aggressive: #AgkistrodonConanti, the #FloridaCottonmouth; #MiamiDadeCounty, #Florida (14 March 2023). In all my years of watching them, I have not once encountered an aggressive #cottonmouth. They can certainly be stubborn and defensive, but they remain one of the easiest species to photograph in Florida! They are very good communicators.

Seen today at a park. I think it's a cottonmouth eating a fish.

Kudos Emma F. Stone, Ph.D. (Not the actress) for yet another in a long line of well-written pieces for Leafly
Have a read about #Xerostomia (= #Cottonmouth)
As cannabis becomes universal, the absence of protective saliva in the mouth + changes in oral colonies of bacteria, symbiotic species of fungus, and some locally harmful effects of cannabinoids may stir up some serious, unappreciated oral+dental public health issues.

May your new year be filled with the kind of luck that lets you find a beautiful Cottonmouth!
one of the highlights of 2022 for me was seeing this beauty and helping escort it off the road
