- Ribbon snake video montage filled with information and facts including a frog tug-o-war between a ribbon snake and a broad banded water snake.
INFORMATION:
Ribbon snakes are categorized in the same family as garter snakes, but they behave more like racers or coachwhips. They have lots of attitude, act tough and often bite if grasped in the wild. Their bit will draw a little blood but they are nonvenomous. wash the bite off with soap to be extra careful.
These snakes are really quick on the draw and quick to stink on you with a pungent deterrent musk.
Ribbon snakes hunt with good eyesight and sense of smell. I never see them too far from water where they search and probe for frogs, toads, fish, worms, or anything they can overpower and swallow... And sometimes things they cant overpower and swallow.
Though the tend to be a little more nervous than their cousins the garter snakes, ribbon snakes are also very hardy and adapt well in captivity. Eventually they stop nipping and musking.
Most people have a difficult time telling the difference between garter snakes and ribbon snakes, especially since you usually only get a glimpse of ribbon snakes disappearing in the wild. Besides looking more mischievous, ribbon snakes are generally thinner in girth with skinnier heads, but the profound tell tell white spot in front of each eye gives them away. Also garter snakes have dark notches or banding on their labial scales or lips.
Adult ribbon snakes average around 16-35 in (41-89 cm) in length. Females are the larger sex. Babies are born live and and look just like their parents.
Ribbon snake's yellow stripes are excellent camouflage among stems, twigs and reeds and also serve as an optical trick that makes them seem to vanish when on the move.

"Sue Attitude?" That's too funny, I love it.
I found one of these in my apartment yesterday, small young one. I thought it was a garter but after some googleing I realized I was mistaken. I saved him from my cats and he was actually really sweet. No biting no musking and I took him outside without any fuss
I found two in my house I left the home
I just caught a baby black rat snake he's about 10in long and about as big around as a sharpie
wow this was awesome
I've always found them to be more like a thin water snek than like a racer.
I actually breed some and released em a few months ago. I like having them around, just as long as they stay away from my green tree frogs LOL
Buhahaha that boy named Sue attitude. Wonderful.
Haha I could tell from the voice alone (and the music) that this was Hank. I didn’t know you had a separate snake channel as well!
Same
Love the nod to Johnny Cash in this haha.
I used to confuse these guys with garter snakes when I was a kid all the time.
Amazing video! Ran into one of these a little bit ago before I knew what it was, now I know not to be scared!
Nice filming! And so are the snakes!
This video is perfect.
RIBBON SNAKES ARE SOOO CUTE😍😍
used to catch these when i was small. love them they are adoreable used to catch about 7 a day
WolfenHoweller do they bite
@@Bella-pc9gt no
@@NO-kg2po thank you
I love you! Please post more storm vids
Workin' on it :D
Wild Snakes awesome!! I mean I don't live in a place where we get tornadoes... but I've been watching your storm chasing videos since I was a little girl and they are amazing! I can now identify different stages of a storm and tornadoes
Great Vid! Good photography, narration and music. Here in Australia we have hardly any diurnal, small, low venomous snakes. Locally I have tiger, king brown, small eyed, red- bellied black, copperhead and eastern brown snakes. All are deadly 😒.
Sounds like a dream come true. Hope to see you there one day.
Wow thanks! Now I know that garter I made friends with was actually a ribbon.
Cheers Macaroon!
So incredible that you got footage like that😃
Oh 😳😳 my God 🙏🙏. I saw one of these snakes 🐍🐍in my yard about two , three years ago. And I always wondered what kind of 🐍 snake was it. ???? I live in Houston, Texas , but I had never seen a snake 🐍 like that before. I didn't do nothing to it . I just let it be on its way. Now I'm glad 😊😊 I watched 👁️👁️ this video. Thank you.
Damn these guys are so funny, my cat brings them in all the time, and I have to capture them and let them back out, I've been biten once, and you can't even feel it
Nice video! This was an amazing video! Keep up the good work!
Your narration reminds me a bunch of that old TV show (Wild America) and the great naturalist, Marty Stauffer!! Jim C.
I had a pet ribbon snake called Merlin once!they are cool snakes to have around!👍👋😁🐍
I had one named ribby he was a dick!
@@jonmacdonald5345 ha,ha.too funny.
Found one today in Colorado
we had tons of them at our summer camp they were in buildings under anything you picked up we never had many in past some were large about 30 inches couldn't be sure what they were garter or racers maybe they were these ribbon snakes they didn't even seem to care if people were there they would not move or leave.
Incredible. Those are 2nd most common snake round here after the broad banded water snake. Also any tips to find snakes in the big bend region during August.
Omg that’s the type of snake i saw in outside of my front door and when i saw it i scream so loud
Finally, someone giving these bastards their just do. We used to find them in the tall grass surrounding two lakes in upstate NY, and they were nasty. We'd find garters and an occasional green snake, and never once did they try to bite. I even had a ring neck that I briefly kept as a pet and it was wonderfully well mannered. But ribbon snakes, unlike what other snake lovers on RUclips say about them, were biters. All of them.
Love the insults to the snake
hehe great vid, thanks!
I'm here cuz there's one chilling in my guard shack right now. Guess he wanted to get out the sun.
Love Pecos hank!
I think this is the kind I keep running into in my apartment building, in westchester county. Almost scares the baby outta me coming down the steps yesterday. It was rather small so I'll assume it was a baby.
Pecos Hank!!!
I would like to see a video on mud snakes and rainbow snakes
I have a ribbon snake, so cute! Awe, I love ribbon snakes. Since they don't eat rodents, like rats, mice and rabbits. Thank God! I'm only allowed to get a ribbon anyway.
It's so hard to tell the difference between a garter snake and what you call a ribbon snake. I may actually have a ribbon snake. If you have time I have five videos of her eating toads on my channel, maybe you could watch one and let me know what do you think she is? I also believe it is a she has she is 3 1/2 feet long and has a slim tail.
I am in Arkansas I just saw a black snake with an orange stripe right down the center of the back
i just chased one into the woods at camp
Ribbon snake- A close relative of the Garter snake. Like it's close relative the Garter snake, the Ribbon snake is harmless.
I have pictures of a few ribbon snakes. They try to eat my gold fish.
Are this snake venomous ?
no
@@Anaphriel Actually, yes, they are. Garters and ribbons DO have a mild neurotoxic venom. However it's not medically significant to humans, plus they don't have effective means of delivery.
@@Ambaryerno I think I should be fine with them then.
Awesome footage! Was this in Houston?
Right in Downtown.
Gee, I thought the skyscrapers would be taller than that. That "everything in Texas" line is full of crap.
craig curlee - Ass, Im in Houston Texas And there is PLENTY Of forest and Wilderness here....
I had one of two of these in ny house, one in my room which was messy and my gradparents computer room that died
I saw this snake. I was too scared
I am in Wisconsin, saw something just like this but with a flat "viper-like" wide head, wondering if anybody knows what it is? I see them quite often on this creek near my place, I am just curious and haven't had much luck identifying it based on the WI list of snakes.
Came here to see if they are poisonous. Just saw one on my walk in the forest . Yes, found it by a pond full of frogs and turtles .
Isn't this a Thamnophis sauritus? If yes, it is a snake in the same group as the garter snakes, since those are Thamnophis too. Or is this a different species?
You didn't listen did you?😂
Currently looking at one crawling in my backyard
0:52 ... "La rana está como "piensa algo bonito, piensa algo bonito" =| ... ^ ^'
Okay I have a ribbon snake I want a python but i found a ribbon
Missing important information are they venomous ?
i caught 4 ribbon snakes today none of them even attempted to bite me they are some of the most chill snakes so this kinda 🧢
Are the ribbons snake danger?
No
Get all of the ground and sky noodles.
Which type of ribbon snake is in this video?
How many Ribbon snake types are there?
Like four I think
@@thepanzee8577 ... Hmm! Probably depends on the area, this is Texas I believe?
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO rip frog
Snake¿
Me and my friend went to a ditch and we saw a this kind of snake but with a different color the color was red,yellow,and white it wasn’t a coral snake it had stripes like this one and a few minutes later it was gone...I don’t know if it poisonous or not but when I saw it I was freaking out and I told my friend and she didn’t believe me then I showed her then we ran back home 😂
