This was the first year I started seriously herping even though I’ve been an avid reptiles and amphibian enthusiast my whole life and I learned a lot from your videos and owe my limited success herping this year to you. I live in Philadelphia and though around here we don’t have as much reptile and amphibian diversity as the South, we still have plenty of cool species, as well as our fair share of truly awesome species like Kings and Pines in the NJ Pine Barrens and Timbers in the Mountains(though they’re also found in the Pine Barrens). Although I had complete goose-eggs most of the times I went out this year, I was fortunate enough to find my lifer Northern Pine Snake(there’s a big population in NJ but they’re still an uncommon find and awesome either way) and that made my entire year worth it. I could count the other herps I managed to find this year by hand but I hope to continue herping in 2022 and find a lot more herps, including more Pines, my first Timbers(my personal favorite snakes) and all the other reptiles and amphibians the Mid-Atlantic states have to offer. So thank you for making these awesome videos because every single one is very fun and helps out a ton.

This was my first year watching you and you’ve helped me develop a love for herps. Thanks!

Green snakes are my absolute favorites. I had one as a pet when I was a little kid. I have great memories of watching him chasing crickets. One day he escaped his terrarium and my neighbor found him hiding out in his garden and returned him to me. I finally ended up setting him free but I’ll always remember him.

You know for having such subtle coloration the Four-Toed Salamander is actually quite beautiful.

nice to end this year like that

A kingsnake and toads being fancy. What a great way to end a year.

That was a great king flip!

And I thought the last video was a good way to wrap up the year!! That December king was was 🔥 🔥 🔥!!! Great stuff as always bro!!

Thankful for your channel Noah. Yours, Brian's and Chandlers are my absolute favorites to watch.

you're my absolute favorite channel!! I hope you have a happy new year noah!!

Nice vid enjoyed it so much. Happy new year. I find massive slimey salamanders all around my house. I live in middle Georgia where I find them more than anywhere

Awesome, we'll done and HAPPY NEW YEAR

🎶 TOAD. IN. THE ROAD. 🎶

Early squad

Thanks for your excellent herp coverage this past year. I look forward to an enjoyable 2022. Happy New Year!!

Happy New Year Noah! We love your channel.

You should have adult warnings for all these frog orgy's you film...lol but seriously I really loved that king snake what a great find. Happy New year and good luck with 2022 herping.

Hope it goes well and happy new year

Happy New Year 🎊

Do you have videos of you herping in Arkansas? I would love to watch them I often go out doing this in a creek by my house it's fun and you have encouraged me to start doing it more

Happy New year, been subscribed for about a week, and both my 1 yr old son and I have been enjoying your content. I enjoy herps and use to arrange boards in our backyard as a kid. My dad hated it because it would kill the grass, but he let me do it anyways. I want to teach my son to not fear these wonderful animals but to respect them, and enjoy them. Thank you for all that you do, and here's to a successful 2022 for you and your channel. P.S I especially appreciate the 4K content 👍

always a satisfying video. Happy new year bro 🥳

Happy New Year!

December Eastern king... good things come to those who wait. 🙂

Congratulations on the amazing video you uploaded and shared it with us!! Have a nice time!! Happy New Years!!

I'm worried about the green snake. I love green snakes.

Well Noah, I enjoyed your videos this year a lot. Hope you have a great New Year.

sign found floating in pond: "thanks for the F-shack, dirty mike and the boys"

That king snake is so judging you!

Another awesome video Noah! That king snake was awesome!! 🤘🏼😎 I am so glad that happened for you! I love watching your videos because I am always learning something new and I look forward to learning more. I am really looking forward to salamanders breeding and everything that goes with it. I am sure you have covered it before, but this year I must feel differently about it. I can’t wait for another video to come out, which should be soon because you talked about going out on the 1st and here it is Jan. 3rd 9:50pm. Take care and stay safe! 😄❤️🐬🐊

Well i absolutely love these vids especially those corns and rat snakes you find! For me the starter snake for this year was a newborn grey rat and it was a little hissy but still cute as ever

Brilliant this we herp in the uk on our videos 🐸💚🐸

That was a healthy looking spotted

That salamander is posionus

Noah, i hope you can record ornate chorus frogs. Nice vid. 👍

You'd think it would start the breeding season but here in Alabama it's below freezing

That king looked like he had an injury on him. It looked pretty fresh. Hopefully he's ok. You can see it on his right side at about 9:12 down near your thumb. Edit: looking again, it's hard to tell where on the body it is. It could just be a slight prolapse.

Hey nfkherper! I was wondering what the highest elevation you have caught/seen snakes at? Here in New Mexico I saw a black tailed rattler at about 7500- 7700 ft elevation, and have heard from reliable friends of even 8000+ ft? Idk exactly what species and or how high they may go, curious? 👍👍😁 Great job as always

Do you ever find tiger salamanders? If you look at salamanders from the front, they look like they are smiling.

6:26 rough green snake charmless?? poor guy

I really enjoy your channel great way to end a great year what were your top favorite salamander snake lizards that you herped all 2021 turtles and frogs and toads

I love snakes

Quick question. In addition to herping, one of my main interest is bottle and relic digging. I was recently digging a spot in MD for bottles (obviously well past the season where snakes are above ground) and unearthed both a ringneck and a brown snake in the hole I was digging. I carefully extracted them and set them about 5 feet away from the hole I was digging. It was about 60 degrees that day but was supposed to drop below freezing that night (last night actually). What is the likelihood they found their way back somewhere safe and warm underground? I would feel pretty bad if I inadvertently ended up killing them. They both seemed very healthy otherwise when I removed them.

What lizard runned on tree at 3:20?

How can you tell that a DeKay's brownsnake has no charm?

Snek 🐍

are u afraid of seeing any bears?

Looking forward to amphibian breeding!

Noah I'm in northeast Alabama...I wanted to know if you've had any luck herping the black pine snake..or the northern pine snake..I know the black pine has been federally protected recently and has lands now set aside for it..just curious..hope you have a wonderful new year

Love ur vids bro I do the same thing
