I was bit by a copperhead when I accidentally stepped on it at 5 years old in Asheboro, N.C. I will tell you now...the pain was absolutely indescribable. It felt like someone held a blowtorch to my foot. I was bit on my left ankle and to this day I have nerve pain radiating when the weather changes. Snake bites can cause long-term damage. Always wear high boots when you are exploring the woods.
ther1rida ther1rida i got bitten when i was 8 yrs old in both ankles it was cray im sorry to hear u didn’t make a full recovery i thank my lord jesus made a full recovery from this scary accident

Did he actually die?

@Gary wait...He uploaded yesterday...
Honestly such a tragedy why does such unfortunate things happen to such courageous people like coyote.
@@christophercar7447 he uploaded two days ago.
My Dad told me a story of how my uncles as kids would dig for redworms to sell to fisherman as they lived by a flood control reservoir in Jackson Co., TN. On one worm digging adventure, They noticed the redworms that had just dug up had eyes. Upon showing them to their Dad, he told them to get rid of them. He told them shortly afterwards they were baby copperheads. How either of them avoided being bitten is still a mystery and a frequently told family story.
Should also mention that copperheads rely on their camouflage to a fault, believing themselves to be invisible as long as they don't move. This means that they won't run away like most snakes until directly confronted, which too often is after they've already been stepped on.
I stepped on one once! Makes sense now that iv read your comment! Lucky it was just a baby
@@444Dragoncheese Sometimes a baby can be worse since they can't control their venom output so they might just dump it all into you

There's something very beautiful about someone doing a job they are 100% passionate and excited about.

The most dangerous part of this adventure would be running into an active moonshine operation.....No witnesses!
Growing up in the 60s suburbia , the Appalachian wilderness was nearby. Of course , we were always adult supervised & if you managed to wonder off were thoroughly chewed out when you got back . One of the chewing points was there are Stills out there & those moonshiners don’t take chances with letting you live .
What's a moonshiner?

I was bitten by a large copperhead in PA. Bit in the hand and they had to cut my arm the whole way up past my elbow to relieve the pressure from swelling. I was in the ICU for 3 days and hospital for 9 days. Please be careful around them!
cut your arm off?!

Chronic Spyr you are so funny 😂 I
My wife and I just moved to Kentucky from Upstate New York and we were told that the best way to keep snakes out the yard is using your lawn mower on a regular basis.
was that an attempt at humor?
@@imnotusingthisanymore2300 I thought it was practical
Coyote, something you didn’t mention, is that Copperheads have a strong odor of cucumber. If you’re out in an area where there is potential for snakes and you smell cucumber, be very alert, because it’s probably not a cucumber you smell. Chances are, it’s a Copperhead. I found one in southern OH once. I didn’t know what it was when I caught it. I took it in to my grandma because she was a snake fanatic, and before she even seen it she said “you’ve got a Copperhead there.” Then she explained to me about the cucumber smell.
How deadly is the copperhead? A: deadly enough.
Coyote is the closest thing to a Steve Irwin that we’ve had since his death. He loves wildlife and never comes off as a disingenuous dude. I originally thought he was looking for views by getting bit in every video but realized he’s got so much heart for nature. Respect❤️
Steve Irwin said that he would catch any snake except a copperhead because of how aggressive they are. Steve Irwin was a legend and a hero and it’s good to see people like Coyote carrying the torch and raising the bar.
@@nipsarecomingoff1902 I live pretty close to where they are in this video, within about 100 miles. We have so many dangerous creatures here in the Appalachian mountains. Black bear, timber rattler, water moccasin, brown recluse, black widow, and worst of all, hillbilly meth heads. All very dangerous and unpredictable.
Gotta watch out for the hillbilly meth heads lol. I’m from Ohio so I know what you mean. Interesting fact: When I was just 7, I was bitten by the brown recluse while I was asleep (on my left foot). Made it to the hospital in time for doctors to extract the flesh-eating venom, but 18 years later my left leg is still a little bigger than the right.
Apple Pie check out Forrest Galante. He’s the real next Irwin
You should definitely check out what his kids are up to, especially Robert Irwin. They're so much like Steve and it's quite amazing to watch them
As a service-member stationed overseas that’s from West Virginia, it makes me so happy to see one of my favorite KZheadrs in my back yard. Thanks Coyote.

I love seeing Mario being a expert with everything
Had one on my back patio about a month ago and came across it when I took the dogs out back after their dinner. The stone was gray and it stood out to me, but the dogs didn't notice it until I started to deal with it, then they kept trying to come in for a close look, but I successfully kept them away. I didn't want to go in to get a grabber, so I used a small rake and broom that was on the patio to grab it and heave it over our fence into the woods behind our house. It wasn't aggressive and it could easily have struck the dogs as they walked over it to the yard, but it was frozen, it wasn't until I tried to get it with the broom and rake that it moved and then it was to try to flee, though it did strike the broom a couple times. Very used to garter snakes which are plentiful, but this is the first time I've seen a copperhead in our yard, it took me a moment to realize what it was.
Snake: Thanks to my venom, I can finally end this mans whole career! Snake: Goes into tube Snake: Wait, no!!
😁😀😄
😂
Lol
Omg lol that is haarious
Copper heads can not kill a full grown adult. I've been bitten three times. No medical treatment ever.
All these comments saying, "Coyote you're the best!" Mark and Mario are like, "Am I a joke to you?"

But no one is commenting that.. (well unless they wanted to or none)
Copper heads look so badass the color and the shape of their head.. I love how awesome venomous snakes look
As much as I fear snakes, I respect that you returned this snake unharmed and right back to its original location.
Peterson: *wears snake bite protection boots Also Peterson: Looks for the snakes head first
Sim Mckenzie 😝 😂 😆 lol
pepper RAGE r/woooosh
Big brain move
Cause the head is the most important part to find first so you know where the snakes point of position is
You definitely want to keep an eye on the head.

I saw A Copperhead In Pennsylvania
@@dumbbird7569 i saw one in Georgia
He not in the mountains he in da hills dumbazz
Am West Virginian, can confirm
I directed a geological field study in Wake County, NC for about three years, way back in the 90s. Copperheads were common within the field area, and they blended perfectly with the ground cover. Anyone who didn't know what to look for might easily step on one or more a day, but everyone wore boots and snake leggings. I've never seen so many Copperheads in one area. They are beautiful snakes, but very different from the Western Diamondbacks and Mojave rattlers I was accustomed to seeing in the Big Bend region of Texas.
Most people aren't aware that NC has more snake bites than any other state and I believe Wake County has the most snake bites in NC. I live in Wake County near Wake Forest and every year would encounter multiple copperheads in my yard----but once I got rid of all my pine trees I saw no more snakes. I had one strike at me last year as I was checking trail cameras in Durham county. Walked right by and didn't see him. He hit my pants leg. I was lucky
Reminds me of when my brother almost stepped on a Copperhead a few years ago. The encounter was all the more surprising given we were in the suburbs of Northern Virginia! We were climbing on some rocks lining one of the many streams that cut a path of nature through the endless neighborhoods. My brother saw the snake right as he jumped, and just managed to avoid the snake and evoking a strike! He pointed it out, asking what I thought it was, and I knew what it was. I had only read about them or saw them at the zoo up to that point. We just admired the animal from a safe enough distance for our adolescent minds, and went back home. In hindsight, I realize we probably should have called someone to relocate the snake to a safer location.
This sounds ridiculous but....I'm more afraid of ticks than snakes.
it isn’t dude, don’t worry
Michael Cline I’m just the opposite.
Michael Cline same here
Don't worry, that is not weird. Ticks can spread fatal diseases.
lol ticks are more scary then snakes i agree
It’s West Virginia you could just walked down the highway and found either of those snakes
In some places swim next to them. lol
I live in central MS, and they're both all over the place here. All ya gotta do is go turkey hunting to find one lol
nuter2007 That doesn't make for such a long "remote" video. Haha
As a West Virginian, I can confirm. I had to remove a copperhead nest last summer, I have no clue how I haven’t been bitten haha
I live in WV
I just wanna say this is the first channel I've supported so thank you for making quality videos.
Glad you like them!
I saw the video and was like “this is interesting” and then he said they were in West Virginia and I instantly got excited because nobody ever showcases our state. 😂

I think he was saying they didn't know what was upahead and they couldn't see anywhere to turn around so they'd have to go by foot
Adds drama .... lol
What happened to the copperheads?
Nice shot of Seneca Rocks in the intro...great place to go climbing
I was hiking in Roanoke County, VA a few years back when I came across a beautiful eastern timber rattler. He was basking on a stepping stone rock, right in the middle of the trail. We took a couple pictures, then walked around him. By the time we came back, he was gone, but it was an awesome encounter
I spent my teen and early adult years in Roanoke Co. Great hiking around there. I'm near Charlottesville these days at the foot of the Blue Ridge and try to get in the mountains as often as possible. Black timber rattlers are pretty easy to spot if you're paying attention. If you're close they will often make their presence known....if not sleeping in the sun.
I live in Blacksburg Virginia

Coyote: We are walking back to the vehicle Copperhead: SURPRISE

@Casa De Jarp 🤣🤣🤣
I live right by the Appalachian Trail and I see Copperheads all the time. The scariest thing about them is how still and silent they stay as you go by them. These things don’t flinch
I grew up in Washington County Western Maryland and as a kid we had Copperheads all the time in our backyard. Every year - typically in spring and fall when snakes are laying in warm spots and camouflaged - people would step on one and get bit while hiking the Appalachian Trail not watching where they're stepping. Very important when hiking!
Live in W.V. n have been a long time fan. Saw this when you posted but looked it up again now bc I just avoided stepping on an adult copperhead and it's 1am. Glad I was looking at the ground but are still shook. Also glad you found this one bc your content has always been awesome n made me feel better!! 😸😸
Nobody: Coyote: *sees insect* Also coyote: I don’t think nobody has been bitten by one of these. Let’s find out🤠
you used double negatives... thats a bad Fire Kicks
I bet somebody has
I got bit by one of these a few years back at 18 years old on my forearm reaching into a brush pile to get my machete I dropped after clearing some brush and let me tell you that hurtttt and the anti venom process wasn’t fun either. Took me 7 months to be able to get my whole range of motion back in my wrist the swelling did some crazy damage. Thank god it wasn’t worse could’ve been real bad if I would’ve gotten bit in a vein or artery.
West Virginia!! My son loves you and is going to be excited when I show him this episode!
I live in Northern Virginia and we used to live right by a river and there were all kinds of snakes all over the place. Over the years, I remember stepping RIGHT over several copperheads at night (thinking they were sticks, but then they moved). Luckily, I was never bit.
Coyote: How deadly is a copperhead? Copperhead: yes
When I was 8 years old, I got face to face with one. We stared at each other. I walked away. Beautiful encounter Edit on 5/30/21, : WHY ARE YALLS STILL REPLYING AFTER A YEAR AND I DONT WANT TO KNOW ABT YALLS KILLING SNAKES PLS WHY ARE YALLS MAD
Just more proof that snakes are gentle creatures with no intention of harming you.
Hey man same thing happened to me when I was about 8 or 9 I was walking in the woods with my cousin and I just sorta walked up on it looked at it and turned around and bolted now that I think back on it it was perfectly fine and had no aggression in it but my 8 year old mind did not think that
Same
Sebastian Randolph hold up why were you in the woods?
Hotaro what’s wrong with being in the woods
Tim really is a back woods blood hound when it comes to dealing with thick snakes! what a stud muffin!!!
You should make more of these amazing videos!!!!!!!!!!
The best part about this is that they aren’t in a zoo they are actually going into nature and finding snakes! Thanks coyote!
Working in the woods of WV, you learn the major sign of copperhead dens: the obvious smell of cucumbers. It’s very strong!
I thought that was an old wives tale.
A little bit like fresh cut grass too
@Todd Lenard really
I live in a heavily copperhead "infested" area and have occasionally smelled cucumbers in my back yard, which adjoins a poorly maintained powerline easement. Usually if I smell that, we start seeing copperheads in the back yard. Usually large adults.
Why that scent,what's that mean?
What a gorgeous snake! So intimidating!

WesleyO05 they are not prone to biting. At least one has never even attempted to bite me and I kinda touched it lol.
Of all NA snakes this one gives me the chills. No warning, great camouflage, just ready to bite and you’re done. Beautiful but scary.
What a long hike to find a snake.🐍 I opened the back porch door, and there was a copperhead blending in with the fall leaves and pine needles - I almost stepped on it! Scared 😱 in South Carolina!
Me: Sees hose in the middle of the night *Screams* Coyote: Encounters snake
Hehehe
Lol
Well I have seen Peterson get willingly pinched bitten or stung by things I would never allow. And my maternal line of Gallagher and clann Fearghaille in a matriarchy means my mythic bloodline is dominated by common European adders and viviparous lizards. Plus I grew up in Okefenokee and Cade's Cove while not in school in north Georgia. Both places are crawling with horridus, chelydra, bobs and bare.
You're a whiny child. Way to be cool by bragging about it on the internet.

Love seeing you on tv being bit by stuff man. ❤
I'm allergic to everything so id die forsure. Would a tourniquet slow my death if I get bit? I always have a tourniquet with us in my first aid kit. ❤
I just love the Idea of Rattlesnakes, The way that they make a noise to warn you away. Our snakes in Australia they just Bite you, No real warning just Zap and your off to hospital. Most of the time you never even saw it coming!
I use a 12ga to hunt them !
Most rattlers don’t rattle. They just bite
You Aussies have some wicked biting animals and bugs. That black spider that is aggressive seems like it would be pretty scary. I live in Georgia and have killed a few rattle snakes. They do warn you. One of them was 6 1/2 feet long and had 15 eggs in her, and she was in my backyard. I would like to see Australia.
The people that dislike him are the people who came to see him get bit
I was just bit by one 4 times on june 23 and i can 100 percent say it was the most extreme pain ive ever endured in my life. I spent 2 days in ICU and 4 days in a regular room. I never seen it. Couldnt imagine how horrific it would be to be bit by a rattler or a cottonmouth because i swore i was going to die from the copperhead bite, and quite frankly it does feel like your going to die. My thoughts on im ok if i see them first was way off. Im not ok with them at all. Ill never wear sandals or flipflops ever again.
I was also bit really bad on my hand(doctors said it was the worst bite they’ve ever seen) but I got mine cleaning out a skimmer at a pool and the snake camouflaged really well and just chomped my hand. I was in icu for three days and yes this was so painful for over a month and it’s been over two months now and I’m still in physical therapy trying to heal this.
@Roshelt same here. I have some days I have severe pain still and some days I'm just fine. I didn't do physical therapy but did go to wound care because of my bites being so deep and having trouble healing. That first month following the bite had me giving up on life for real. Sending hugs and prayers for healing for you.
Just stumbled across a copperhead this morning while I was hiking in Birmingham alabama this morning! Super cool experience; just moved him off the trail and went about my way!

I bite icecream. Now bow before me!
I grew up in WV and saw copperheads quite often. In particular, I remember on one on our porch and one on the road. I even went up into the woods by myself. After growing up, I asked my mom why she didn't worry about the snakes biting us. She said she figured we made enough noise to scare them away. Maybe she was right. We never got bit. In fact, I never heard of anyone being bit. Lucky!
What a beautiful snek!!
Snakes in general scare me, doesn’t matter what kind. Hell, I freaked out when I saw a baby garder snake

12:44 that jumping spider was like "finally my Uber is here, guys guys no flash photography" 😂😂
I live in the Atlanta suburbs and I had a nest of copperheads under the foundation of the house I was renting. They would get in the garage and, true story, I replaced the O2 sensor on a Chevy Avalanche in my driveway and rolled over to get out and there was one staring at me from about 8 inches away. It was about as thick as a redbull can and about 2.5 feet long. No joke. But, they won't bite unless you mess with them, or step on them (a more common occurance). Great video!
I love seeing coverage of wv! Video games, movies, and nature documentaries greatly underrepresent the vast harsh wilderness that is our mountains.
Nice Seneca rocks fly over in the beginning! I've hiked upand climbed on those rocks probably 20 growing up. Use to live like 15 mins down the road from them.
When he realized he may be in the den of a bear, it reminded me of the scene in the second Jurassic park movie when the two T. rex hunters find the Rex nest with the baby rex

Me when I see a snake: Ahh Run away! Coyote: Let me feel your bite
"Let's use a technique called tubing." *HUH, I wonder why it's called that?* Someone is a creative genius.
Prob my fav episode
I live in Central Texas, and we have quite a few of these here in Fayette County. That said, while I've heard of a few persons becoming severely ill with the venom, I have yet to hear of one fatality in recent years. There can always be the case I haven't heard of, but these snakes are not generally fatally or lethally dangerous.
We had a man die 2 years ago in North Arkansas.He didn’t seek medical care
I'd rather not get bit, then get bit and die because it turns out my body has a reaction to the venom. I was working for someone and came across 2 copperhead snakes on their property, they showed little concern and insisted I keep doing work in the area I saw them in, I quit and left. No money is worth something like that.
I almost got bit by a dinosaur once. Lucky for me it was extinct.
Only 60 million years away from certain death. You were very lucky.
Spent my entire life visiting the Catskills in New York. Saw a timber rattler once in 35 years. Very elusive creatures. Heard the rattle of the engine of a Willies Jeep. That's how loud it was. An awesome and unforgettable encounter. Excellent work Coyote!
My family has been going up to Lake Luzurne/Lake George since I was born, we have 2 houses(1 each side of the family uses), and I've never seen one. Never actually seen any snake up there. See more snakes by our real home less than an hr north of the Bronx. But then again, I probably have only spent 1% of my life up by Lake George
They're everywhere in the Shenandoah Nat'l Park area. Steve irwin went there to do his episode. I did AT trail maintenance in SNP and would see them all the time in the summer. Maybe permits weren't allowed for this particular "hunt" though..
I am making a journal on snakes and the copperhead is the one i am on now and this helps me a lot on learning about them and writing it in my journal. I have been watching your videos on snakes to give me ideas on what ones to do next. I am doing it so in case i find one i will know what it is and if it is harmless or not.
I live so close to fraziers bottom I'd do anything to meet you glad you love this beautiful state it really is amazing
I live in E KY and been bitten twice by copperheads. Despite what some people claim they are not aggressive but actually freeze when they sense something approaching and being so well camouflaged often get stepped on (or very close to) and will strike. That's what happened both times to me. Bite is very rarely fatal but will hurt like hell for days even after being treated (and need to be treated fairly quickly). Adult copperheads can regulate how much venom to deliver in a bite as well and will often deliver a 'dry bite' to drive off smaller intruders, had a kitten bitten once who I expected to die, (being so small) but other than the fang marks she developed no injury from the bite, did however develop an intense respect for snakes afterwards.
Finally, a channel that doesn’t clickbait
Lil Hydra 5637 there’s a clickbait video
I walked right over one when I was abt 2 years old. God saved my life because I probably wouldn’t be here. my mother didn’t even see it until I already had walked over it.

I live in southeastern North Carolina on the water. I've spotted copperheads several times on our property. Yes, they were copperheads. One had gotten tangled up in some netting in our shed with just his head and about a foot of its length protruding. I reached for the netting before I saw him and he tried to strike but didn't have enough of himself exposed to reach me so, close call but no problem other than a need to change underwear.
