If not, you may not see any for a whole fcking season 😂 I guess that's why his content is needed so urgently

I'm 2 years late to the comment, but absolutely. I am deathly afraid of snakes. Terrified. Will have a pure melt down if I see one in person... but I HATE to see them dead. It makes me so upset. Even though I'm afraid of them, I respect them. They're needed in the environment and in nature and they're really incredible creatures. Whenever I see a dead one in the road it breaks my heart (as would any other dead animal). I hate them, but I will never ever kill one on purpose or bother one if I don't need to.

When you post the name of the snakes, you have either venomous or harmless appear under the name. Just wondering if you should add a third category for the cranky snakes that like to bite, since some of them are not exactly harmless. You could call them “pissy” or “bitey”, etc.
