The Eastern Diamondback rattlesnake Crotalas admanteus is on the endangered species list in NC where only documented sightings have been at Camp Lejeune Onslow County. Those documented sightings were in the mid nineties and when they complete I-42 it will be the end of the Eastern Diamondback rattlesnake in NC. If you know of a breeding population of EDB's in NC report it to your Wildlife Officers so it gets documented and could help save them in NC.

The last documented population of the Eastern Diamondback rattlesnake Crotalas admanteus in North Carolina was in the mid nineties at Camp Lejeune Onslow County particularly the G-10 live fire practice range where US Army herpetologist were conducting a survey of their species breeding population in NC. Contact the NC Department of Natural Resources for information regarding EDB documented sightings in your state or send photographic evidence and provide the location to your Wildlife Agency in your county.

Snakes are important for controlling the rodents that causes millions of human fatalities from different diseases around the world. They also provide valuable venom for the production of antivenom and medicine for treating Thrombosis,High blood pressure,Pain medication and cancer research purposes for breast cancer. You might even be taking medicine made from snake venom. Remember that the world is a bigger place than one person's fear of snakes . 😊

The video you're talking about is two male pitvipers a Cottonmouth and a Copperhead competition for the territory and right to mate with the nearby female pitviper . There's no documented Cottonheads in the wild only bred in captivity.

Cottonmouths Agkistrodon picivorous are semi aquatic pitvipers cannibalistic hooked tooth fish eaters and Copperheads Agkistrodon controtix aren't semi aquatic but they can swim like all species of snakes can swim but in the wild Cottonmouths and Copperheads are very different in the habitats which they live, hunt and breed in . There's no documented evidence of any breeding population of Cottonheads in the wild only in captivity .
