Off a gravel road near Blum, you'll find a private pond. It's home to a friendly water snake: Big Bertha.

  • My father is in a similar wheelchair. He's befriended a young squirrel that fell from it's nest some months ago. He nursed The squirrel for a few weeks. The squirrel now lives in the trees on our property and when it sees him will come down out of the tree and climb onto his lap while he's in his wheelchair. It truly is a beautiful sight to see.

Would find her resting there almost every day, even after I'd picked her up several times (which she didn't always approve of, lol). Sold the property and on a revisit, new owners said she still comes to the same spot.

Normally, I’d probably would’ve just left it alone and let the spider had a good meal...had it been something else besides a dragonfly. I quickly knelt down and untangled the dragonfly. It quickly flew away, but not before chomping down on my hands a few times first. Sure, it hurt like bitch, but I didn’t blame the dragonfly. I already the inherit danger and did it anyways. I’m sure the same applies to this old man. I’m sure he knows he could easily get bitten and weighs the risk every single time.

  • Best video in a long time. So nice and refreshing to see a human respect and care for such misunderstood and feared creatures such as snakes. Water snakes are very plentiful here in Tennessee, especially up at Reelfoot Lake. Water Moccasins (Cottonmouths) are afraid of them, because water snakes will hunt them. They get pretty big too, feeding on the plentiful food sources. The Brown Water Snake does look very very similar to a Water Moccasin. Hard to tell from a distance. They are not shy about approaching people, they want your food, fish, bait, etc.

This was not in some zoo or sanctuary. This was in the wild. I think it was in Guatemala or Ecuador or some Latin country. That was really amazing to see. The dude would actually go into the water way in and then the croc would meet him halfway. I almost shit my pants when I saw the croc getting nearer to the dude head.
