RE: KEEPING CHILDREN SAFE AROUND SNAKES

in Steem Education6 years ago (edited)

Love the thumbnail and intro. Awesome job everyone!Good video too. Thanks much.

Great acting at the end. LOL! You're a natural.

My concern about vacationing in Arkansas is my eyesight. I can't tell the difference between a watersnake and a cottonmouth until I am WAY too close. I know about the pupils and the presence of the "pits" but I can't see that if I am crossing a stream and there is a snake in the water or on the shore. Any other advice? I like to swim in the lakes and collect water and cool off in the streams and simply try to notice by going slow and avoid either one.

Sort:  

Basically, unless you step right next to one on shore, they shouldn't present a problem. I've intentionally swam with them just to see what would happen.

Really?! Ok. Well, that does make me feel better. I like the really remote areas with a nice hike from the car so thanks. That helps. Like you said, perception vs reality. I'll still watch my step, LOL! Thanks bro.
