Why this chart is bullshit:

Heat pits just say a snake hunts for warm-blooded prey.

Slit pupils help snakes precisely judge distance for an ambush, while round pupils are for active foraging + chase-hunting. Like, garter snakes root around for crickets and worms and fish, while pythons wait for a mouse and STRIKE! Thus:Round vs Slit pupil.

Round snoot has nothing to do with anything.

Y’all shouldn’t grab a snake to check its tail scutes anyway, that’s dumb af.

Ball Pythons have chubby cheeks ‘cause they have to open their mouths real wide to swallow big things, and that’s where their muscles go. Small-mouthed snakes don’t need as much slurping power.

Coral snakes [pictured above] have the second-strongest venom of any snake, but they have round eyes, no heat pits, a round snout, and no retractable fangs.

The average person can’t bloody tell what’s a heat pit vs a nostril. Here’s pictures of the illustrated snakes above. They’re too damn close in appearance, and their markings are super similar, and they both swim and stay in the shadows so if you’re in an area where cottonmouths live, and you see a dark brown-to-black snake, just leave it the fuck alone!

This is a spitting cobra when it doesn’t have its hood up. Pretty chill brassy bro, right? WRONG! This sucker will spit venom in your eyes from 6 feet away!

BLARGHHHSSST~

What a cute slithery noodle, right? Friend-shaped head and neck,round pupil, no heat pits - we good, right?

Hahaha WRONG! That’s the Inland Taipan, literally the most deadly snake on this bitch of an earth. One bite’s worth of venom is enough to kill 100 fully grown men. It makes your kidneys fail while your skeletal muscle falls apart and you’re vomiting and seizing even as your blood thickens and forms massive clots. So yeah. This slithery beauty is a DO NOT APPROACH!

Woah Look at those heat pits! Slit-thin eyes! Spooky af, right?

Nah bro, that’s an emerald tree boa. They just wanna eat birds and sit in a tree all day.

Snoozin’ friendo~

Anyway, snakes are a varied species and the illustrated infographic being passed around is total bullshit.

Don’t approach strange snakes.

Don’t approach a snake unless you’re 100000% certain it’s the type of snake you think it is, and you have solid knowledge of all the types of snakes in your area. Just leave the wild noodles alone.
