What is a "water moccasin"?
A water moccasin, also known as the cottonmouth, is a venomous snake found in southeastern parts of the United States. It gets its name from the white coloration inside its mouth, which it displays as a warning signal when threatened. Water moccasins are semi-aquatic snakes commonly found near bodies of water, such as swamps, marshes, and lakeshores. They have a stout body, dark-colored scales, and a distinctive triangular-shaped head. These snakes are known for their aggressive behavior and potent venom, which they deliver through their large, hinged fangs. While water moccasins primarily feed on small mammals, birds, and amphibians, they can become defensive if provoked or cornered. It is important to exercise caution and maintain a safe distance from these venomous snakes to avoid potential bites.
