The gassy coral snake was hilarious 😂 Also what the heck was that night snake doing!? He was wiggle wiggle wiggle, then did that weird coil? And the funny wiggly longnose!? Very interesting herps! I love seeing different snake personalities!
The long nose was caudal luring... look it up and you'll see some highly venomous species that do it.... I've never seen a long nose do anything like that lol
To be fair, I don't think that atrox was a fan of anything. It didn't care for Noah, Steven, and if I read the snake's expression right, it can't stand the viewers either.
If you really wanna find sidewinders, I’d recommend coming out here to the Morongo Basin in SoCal. The Mojave is crawling with them, along with speckled rattlers, Cal Kings, Mojave Shovelnose, and some big gopher snakes
Imagine being one of the most feared venomous snakes in the US and coming across a group of potential predators and farting all over them and then wondering why they’re laughing at you.
Ok had the look up the Arizona Mountian Kingsnake which is another name for the snake I know as the Sornoran Mountian Kingsnake (Lampropeltis Pyromalana) may have misspelled pyro part. But yep they are the same snake. A rare find in Arizona
Have you ever herped outside of the states? It would be awesome to see you (for example) in central and South America, herping for the awesome snakes down there. Also you should to head up to California and try to find things like Cali red sided garters and rubber boas
4:30 I believe that is Aspidoscelis uniparens (exactly as you say later), which is a very unusual lizard species because all its members are female and reproduce by parthenogenesis.
@NKFHerping at the 8:58mm did you notice the really unusual alphabet looking pattern in the Lyres’ saddles? If not take a look at that specific time stamp and it clearly looks like the letter B in one and D in the other.....I’ve not seen that in a Lyre or any other snake before❤️Beautiful
I know that the most venomous snake in the US is a Coral Snake but for the life of me I can't remember which one it is. For some reason I thought it was the Arizona Coral and I don't think that's right. Lol. Anyway, no I didn't know that they farted either. That snake reminded me of one of my friends momma's. We were in his living room playing Super Tecmo Bowl and his momma comes inside walking really fast to her bedroom. Every step she made was a little sound like a trying to hold in a set fart sound, that's the only way for me to be able to describe it. We thought it was her shoes and wouldn't thought any different, but when she came out of the bedroom she said excuse me guys I almost didn't make it to the bathroom. Man we lost it right then and there. Now I am older and kinda feel bad about it. But we told her that we thought it was her shoes squeaking. LMFAO.
i dont the coral snakes the most venomous l, i think it was one of the rattlers, coral snakes while can send you to the hospital and have bitten many ppl, they arent very dangerous and only a handful of deaths have been recorded in the past few decades
@@TheGremlinOfChaos Ok let me see if I can explain this. When it comes to the strength or power of the venom. The Coral is the most dangerous. They are related to the true cobras ( Not the King Cobras, since they really aren't cobras at all ). Now when we are talking about which snake with a larger amount of venom per bite, yes the Eastern Rattlesnake is a clear winner, plus they have the longest fangs of any other snake in the US. I read what you said and it definitely had me questioning myself for a minute and that really doesnt happen that often. Now I have been wrong a lot over the years, just ask my beautiful wife of 26 years. Lol. But I did have to look it up before I commented back, I know that's cheating but I was really scratching my head on this. I thought after all these years of having venomous snakes and especially rattlesnakes, then I need to know for sure. You dont have to take my word for it. Just google ( is the corel snake the most toxic snake in the United States ) it should be the very 1st thing that comes up. Just out of curiosity, what is your favorite venomous or nonvenomos snake in the U.S? Mine is the Copperhead. The copperhead was my favorite anywhere in the world, till I got to see a Gaboon Viper. Those suckers are fine!!! The Rhino Viper ( which is a cross breed with the Gaboon is awesome too. Anyway let me know what you think. I am serious though, I've been dealing with alligators, American Crocodiles and all kind of snakes for 32 years and you my friend, had me second guessing myself. Thank you for that by the way. It keeps me on my toes. Lol
Jason Webb from what ive researched its the mojave rattler, not the coral snake and edit: i digged a little deeper and it seems theres almost a tie between the two, but mojave rattler also have their attitude going for them, and their venom yeld being higher makes them more dangerous, the strength of venom itself seems to be a tie, but coral snakes are more shy and arnt know to bite as often, im no expert but i do research snakes and reptiles a lot and my favorite is the weastern hognose because i love their attitudes
@@TheGremlinOfChaos The most toxic snake in the world is the Fear Snake in Australia. Think about this for a second, the snake with the most toxic venom has never killed anyone in the wild before. Now I have heard of a snake keeper in Europe that was bitten and died, but I'm not sure if it can be trusted fully. When they found the guy there were 4 other venomous snakes out of their enclosures. Now as far as the other goes, I'm going to have to call my uncle about it. He's Grahame Webb in Australia. He will know for sure. Have a great night.
@@TheGremlinOfChaos ruclips.net/video/SbCmhRvTpQw/видео.html Ok here's a video of a respected ZOO reptile person that specializes in venomous snakes. Let me know what you think. Thanks.
I need help identifying a snake seen this weekend in southern Illinois that i have never seen and can't find anything matching what is supposed to be in the area. It was ringed in black and yellow that went all the way around without any belly segmentation a very small head. Length was around 14" and maybe a 1/2" wide in the back It was seen in the Mississippi river near the confluence of the Illinois and Mississippi. If anyone can help i appreciate it.
Hard to say without a picture, but the description sounds like a juvenile Kingsnake. There, they would likely be Black x Speckled Kingsnake intergrades.
@@NKFherping Similar but not the same, banding on this one was just black and bright yellow bands all the way around without change and i do wish i had my phone with me at the moment i seen it. Oh well maybe i will find out this elusive rascals name by memory but that's kinda sketchy lol. Thanks anyway guys.
another reason why coral snakes are my favorite venomous snake and on my list for best venomous snake to keep such calm yet interesting little noodles, im a noob at handling snakes but as long as i have a snake hook i fell ok with moving them (with the snake hook of course) , unlike pitvipers who have quite the attitude XD
I miss M. Harris' and my 2 week route of Catalina Campground, Rose Mt. (Mt. Lemmon), Picacho Peak- Silverbell Rd. Area, Wickenburg, and then down to the Cochise Stronghold after a beer at Tombstone.
We found an atrox that was pushing 60 inches outside of Pearce when we strolled the hills between the Dragoons. The Desert museum didn't believe us, but we know our Crotalus. It was huge and wedged in the rocks in a pack rat nest. Same size as M.'s at home and his was over 5'. He now has bushmasters and Fer de Lance breeding populations and is one of the leading viper guys in North America.
That first atrox. Did u notice the banding on the tail? Inconsistent band pattern consistent with the tail pattern on a Mojave. Yes that snake was an atrox but i think it was a mix. Atrox Scute mix.
At 20 minutes into the video, that may actually be a Mojave instead of a diamondback. About the only way to be sure is that the white bands are a lot wider than the black bands on the tail in a Mojave, and on a diamondback they're fairly close in width between the black and the white bands. The Mojave has far more toxic venom though.
I may be wrong, but I believe a central Sierra zonata holds the record for largest US tricolor at over 48 inches. Seems like tricolors get larger the further west you go(of course not taking into account the large milksnakes in Latin America)
Could certainly be, I have the least experience with zonata. I know Eastern Milks can be huge too but generally they are no longer tricolor at that size haha.
Texas horned lizard? Grew up in north western Arizona and we just called then, horned lizard, of course I suppose we would of called them the Arizona horned lizard.
I went to a snake place, forgot what they are called, and they said the shape of the head could determine weather or not they are venomous. They said if it had a triangle shaped head, venomous. I see many snakes that appear to have that shape head and are not venomous. Then snakes like the coral snake has a round head...
Yeah that’s horrible way to id a snake, many snakes can even puff their face into a more triangular shape, they aren’t mimicking a venomous snake but this is just simply their defense mechanism
It's sad that people don't realize how fragile and truly beautiful snakes are. They only have capacity for GMO puppies and opportunistic spiders and that's depression as best as I can describe it.
I've seen one Arizona king snake hundred of California king snakes . They seem to be migating from Taxifornia. Looking for a side winder very rare, seen only one.
But I'll live in Georgia SouthEast Georgia not have seen Diamondbacks Eastern Diamondback six or seven feet big boys if you know what I mean but I am familiar with the king snake
The gassy coral snake was hilarious 😂 Also what the heck was that night snake doing!? He was wiggle wiggle wiggle, then did that weird coil? And the funny wiggly longnose!? Very interesting herps! I love seeing different snake personalities!

Red touches yellow, will fart on a fellow.

Thank you so much!
If you came here looking for the fart, it's at 2:24

Awesome coral...🦎🐍
A stunner for sure.
When the horned lizard runs 😅😅
how can the first snake of the day not be a fan of THE BEST channel on youtube

Good video of the various defensive displays for these species!
Imagine being one of the most feared venomous snakes in the US and coming across a group of potential predators and farting all over them and then wondering why they’re laughing at you.
Corals behave like they don't know they are venomous. Like the most timid and bashful person holding a m60 machine-gun.
I love watching these videos with my breakfast, so entertaining and funny to me. Thank you so much for uploading and sharing your experiences! ✨
Awesome finds on your trip Noah, Two more Pyros, that's fantastic!
The horned lizard was fun to watch run/waddle lol.
Awesome finds that coral snake was beautiful
We call them Horny Toads in NM. It has been a long time since I have seen one here in NM. That snake turned on the naus gas. So funny.
That gecko was pretty.. but to be preggo, she sure was quick!
Again very amazing animals and in high diversity.
The Chiricahuas, huachuccas, and Santa Rita’s rarely disappoint
Ok had the look up the Arizona Mountian Kingsnake which is another name for the snake I know as the Sornoran Mountian Kingsnake (Lampropeltis Pyromalana) may have misspelled pyro part. But yep they are the same snake. A rare find in Arizona

I also always use a hook with venemous snakes. Not with rear fanged venemous ones. But with the real deal always a hook.
love this area
looks soo much like my Pueblan Milk especially the head.
I don't know how I feel about you touching the coral snakes since if you got tagged there is no antivenin to keep you from dying.
Aren't they venomous? ( Coral )
