Looks more like a darker copperhead to me. That light colored band through the wheel is more of a copperhead pattern. Venom out either way!

Definitely a cottonmouth, small adult/subadult.

Says who? That's not a copperhead unless you used an IG photo with a really dark filter.

acquaintance posted this on FB. said the frog got away.
Either way, going butt first the snake got a mouth full of urine and frog excrement as an appetizer

Yall talking about this snake? Definitely a cottonmouth.
Well I'll be damned. I'm smart enough to know not to touch it either way
She sent me this one a few minutes ago.
In addition to a good shovel, she could use a pressure washer.
I'll pass that on
Bad picture. My dad sent me this and said he thought copperhead...I don't see it. Thoughts?? Located in the Tyler area.

Whatever it is....not a copperhead.
cottonmouth
It's a headless snake. They seem to be quite common, given the amount of photos that have been posted of them
I'm certainly not an expert and please correct me if I am wrong, but Copperheads have their name for a reason and all the ones I have seen are pretty obvious and do not resemble moccasins...at all.
Guys, those are both obviously cottonmouths, if you won't believe me believe 12f Mane. He is the authority on this board.

quote:I somewhat agree but I really don't see too many with a true "copper" head. I think that is more prevalent in the northeast. The color difference is almost always there between copperheads and cottonmouths. Since copperheads are the more upland species they are colored more like fallen leaves (specifically oak leaves) while cottonmouths are darker brown to blend in with their preferred wetland settings.

Here's one with a good copper head from Jackson County
Not sure how big that bobcat is, but seems like a pretty good sized rat snake.
Great picture!
I am sure that some would say that it is a cougar holding its tail in its mouth.

Clearly a mountain lion carrying a juvenile hognose coppermouth.
I'm still not good at this....I thought it was a rattle moccasin
