The Rattlesnake is one of the most common ones you will find out there. They do have a type of venom in them but it usually isn’t very powerful. There are 30 species though and many subspecies so what they will offer depends on what you come across.

The Boa Constrictor is a very large snake with a very thick body. However, it isn’t one of the biggest as the Python species all are larger that this is.

While the snake has a bad rap as a pest, snakes can often be quite helpful and even a fun pet.

The Eastern Coral Snake is also called the American Cobra. It is very dangerous snake due to the potency of the venom that it releases.

Most Belcher’s Sea Snakes are actually quite harmless thanks to a docile personality and a lack of venom.

The adults can be up to 8 feet in length. This makes them the biggest of all snakes found in Canada. Like other species of snakes the colors of this one work to allow it to blend in well with the surroundings.

You know that famous legend about Cleopatra using a snake to kill herself? The type of snake she supposedly used was a death adder. You can find these snakes throughout Australia, New Guinea, and other regions. A bite can result in paralysis, respiratory arrest, and death inside of only six hours. With fast treatment, a patient is unlikely to die, but without treatment, about 50% of bites are lethal. Death adders also prey on other snakes.
