Hognose snek : "I'm angry!" *aggressively boops you*

snake in movie: charge at you and rip you into pieces. "snaek" on this channel: agressively boop you and poop itself to play dead

11:52 "They don't know what humans are, so they die." Oh I didn't realize hognose babies were born with anxiety

As a writer who has a character with a pet snake: _Thank you._

"Oh no! He's in a 'S' curve! He is about to strike!" "Well yes, but actually no."

*"If I wore pants would they be on my belly or my tail?"* I WAS NOT PREPARED FOR THIS

human: Hello! baby hognose: i have decided that i want to die

Doug seems like the sweetest snake to just chill with, he just seems so calm and friendly

no one: hognose snakes: for personal reasons i will be passing away

Hognoses after being born: "yay time to have fun and party" Sees human for the first time: "Well time to die"

11:52 Just the way she said "So they die," so calmly is funny for some reason

“I am my own pillow” *Amazing*

“They have long tails...” Snake: *Is tail*

"Snakes don't bite the hand that holds them." My everglades rat snake: Wanna bet?

Emily: trying to hold Doug Doug: 'I am belt' : ) 1:51-1:56

When I got my first snake, I did not expect to be so entertained by her just sitting there. The fact that she sleeps with her eyes open has not stopped being hilarious and adorable.

"They don't know what humans are, so they die." If that's not the biggest mood ever. XD

nobody: youtube: wanna learn something about snakes? me: ok?

I’m glad you said it. So many people go into the wild and CONTINUE poking at them after they play dead. That animal is terrified for its life. Also that bull snake is insane the variety of colors and patterns on a singular snake. Wow.

This video made me realize that the reason I love snakes but am afraid of them at the same time is only because I don't know how to read their body language! Thanks for this video. I still probably will never have a snake of my own but I appreciate the insight into my nonsensical fear. These sneks are adorable af.

"If you reach into your snake's enclosure and it takes off the in the other direction, it probably thinks you're a predator and is scared of you." Me, who has no snakes nor interest in snakes: "Rookie mistake."

Hog nose: *is born* Human: hi cutie Hog nose: guess I’ll die ✋😕🤚

Me: * Never ever had a snake * KZfaq: Hey bro wanna watch a video on snake body language? Me: Sure why not

*when your ‘danger’ noodle is just silent and curious* “A D O R A B L E-“ Fun fact: my ramen noodle absolutely hates my mom lol. She tenses whenever my mom tries to hold her so my mom usually just leaves her alone lol

Nobody: Hognoses: *i have decided that I want to die*

Me, approaching some stranger: Look out that snake is in S formation, they are gonna attack! Stranger: Get the hell away from my dog you weirdo.

The idea of a snake hatching and first reaction of seeing a human is “dying” is so funny to me

8yr old me: ''mama papa i want a snake!'' me as a 17 year old now: ''i still want a snake'' the mini snake living inside my old hello kitty purse: *wanna bet?*

"They don't know what humans are, so they die." Poor babies lmao

So In conclusion, hognose snakes are the drama queens of the snake community

“They usually won’t bite the hand that’s holding them” me looking at my anaconda that I socialized “yea you did that didn’t you, ya little butthead”

The lesson of "look at the whole picture, not one signal" reminds me of people thinking my dog is aggressive because her ruff is fluffed, even though she's smiling, wagging her tail, and moving like a playful excited doggo. Dogs get their fur standing up when they're very excited, regardless of whether they're happy or unhappy. But people have heard that an aggressive dog's fur stands on end so they get wary even though everything else about her body language is friendly and joyful.

I love how hognoses have an automatic “die” button. They can also respawn. Nice touch.

Hognose snake: *puffs cheeks* I’m angy

The woes of being a good snake keeper: can't show defensive or scared behavior!

I don’t own a snake, I don’t plan on getting any reptiles, but I still watch your videos and trying to understand

Human logic: don't bite the hand that feeds you, bite the hand that's holding you Snake logic: Bite the hand that feeds you, don't bite the hand that holds you

Before people freak out, the smudge on my neck was from dirt :P I was digging for worms for my salamanders prior to filming and must have wiped some on my neck... We noticed it about halfway through, and promptly wiped it off (which is why it disappears). It's not a hickie XD

11:52 "so they die" XD that was so cute and sad

wow, you actually made me see snakes as pets/animals, not monsters. They are kind of cute in their own way

Doug: *S curves* People: Watch out, he's about to strike!! Doug's mind: *am comfy stoopid hoomans*

9:46 "99% of the time after you remove an upset hognose snake from their enclosure, they calm right down and they're perfectly handlable afterwards." me: *looks over to my extremely aggressive hognose* Ya hear that, Dirge??

Me: *Watches this a year later in quarantine,and doesn't have a snake* "Interesting"

1:00 relaxed snek body language 1:45 curious snek body language 3:36 hungry snek body language 5:35 scared snek body language 7:30 cornered/concerned snek body language

I love how people walk up acting like they know more than the person who owns the snake lmao

stressed snakes: :I :Þ :|

Nobody: Hognose: i fed up with this wrld bye👋🤪☠️

Wow! I learned quite a bit! I am usually afraid of snakes, but it helps to see you loving those guys up. I've never seen a snake as relaxed as Doug is, that was very new to me. (Looked like you two were cuddling!) Thanks very much for the video!

Introverts be like "They don't know what humans are so they die"

“They see us for the first time, they don’t know what humans are, so they die” Shows a bin full of dead baby snakes XD *Too cute!!!*

I love that Doug is just wrapped around Emily's hips, he is so frickin chill haha

I know a decent amount about cats, figured it was time I learned more on reading another animal I really like :) Love the style too - clear and to the point, no extra 10 minutes of fancy flair in the middle of everything. Thank you so much!

After owning snakes for a while, you'll find out what the normal rate for tongue flicks is? Don't you mean the Blelele Ratio??

"How to read the body language of a snake" Pissy: *randomly* *acts* *defensively* *and* *hisses* *because* *he* *is* *always* *pissed* *off*

Very good presentation and camera skills! And super knowledgeable on snakes, thank you!

Me: searches how much a hognose snake is Sees price: I'll stick to a corn snake

"They dont know what humans are so they die" The way she said that tho 😂😂😂😂

My friend’s ball python is such a doll, I was holding him the other day and he just curled up in my arms, tucked his head under his body to get the light out of his eyes, and passed out. He’s so sweet.

Just wanted to take a moment and thank you for all the videos you've done for snake care. It's been about a year since I surprise adopted a corn snake (long story) and after watching your videos things have been going smoothly.

“Danger Noodle Consumes Cheese Boi.” 2020 colorized.

I dont own any sort of reptiles. but im so FASCINATED with this channel!!!

Human - "So snake, what are your views on the world?" Snake - "Don't tread on me."

so much good information, and the way you kept us engaged was great!

As a brand new snake caretaker, I have really found this channel helpful so far! Thank you for your content!

Oh man, I came across a hognose by accident once when I was doing my research in the prairie. He immediately played dead, and squealed very dramatically as he "died"

Me: What is this? KZfaq: Snake video Me: I don’t own a snake KZfaq: This is what you want to watch Me: I DON’T OWN A- KZfaq: *WATCH IT*

Just got my baby corn snake. I thought he was stressed and I got upset but this video has reassured me that he’s just relaxing. Thank god, I love my baby

Watching you and your videos. I am learning to not be afraid of them. I can see their body language better. My daughter has had a corn snake since she was 12 years old. She is almost 23 now. Still has Valentine. ❤but I never held him. Even when he was little. He is very sweet. The only snake I will love as part of our family. Thanks for showing me how to relate to him.

“That’s of course the bite we call oH NO DON’T BITE ME” Snek-“...How did you know”

Me: "It's 7am. I should go to sleep." Me, 20 minutes later: "Now I know how these scaly cuties show their feelings. Sweet!"

I have a python of my own (ball python) and she is literally the sweetest girl, I recently adopted her. She is not head shy at all in any way, she lets me boop her, pet her head, she’s totally fine with me touching her face. She always is so calm and relaxed that I can never tell what she’s feeling. Whenever I pick her up she just totally unravels, meanders for a bit, then finds a comfy spot on me to relax.

Body language is so interesting to me- ever since I started living with cats I learned how different the communication can be between species, and now I’m looking into it even more cause it’s just so cool!!

Me: already knows what my snake looks like when he's upset Also me: watches entire 20 minute video on what he'll look like when upset

I swear to god I can never tell when my ball python is hungry he’s just SO calm and relaxed and friendly all the time. I’ve had him for a few months and he’s yet to bite me but as soon as food is in his tank there is no hesitation at all that sucker is down the hatch. Not to mention since he was young when I got him, normally ball Pythons don’t like you touching their head but he’s actually used to me kissing his nose at this point and sometime I swear if I hold him up to look at him he’ll reach out and give me a little kiss. After years of wanting a snake I finally got one and he’s the sweetest little boy. Update: I’m glad y’all love my little guy so much. Btw his name is Ghoul. He is a little bit of a scaredy-cat and freezes if you enter the room too fast lol. But for those curious he’s growing up well, had a little bit of a scare with him about a month ago thinking he was sick but everything’s ok. His birthday was this last November and now I’m coming up on a whole year of owning him. I couldn’t be a happier snake momma!

Hognose: "Literally dead u guys"

Thank you so much!! I was having trouble feeding my baby snake and after watching this video I was finally able to!! Thank you!!

my ball python loves being held, when he’s ready to receive some loving he will hold his head up and wait for me to pick him up so he can chill in my bra or my hands. idc what anybody says, my snake loves me

During college, I'd visit a snake that was a residential pet at a nearby pet-store. I did so because the owner would tell me "that snake likes you so much, she always recognizes you, please visit". I never quite understood why, until she gained more confidence to perk up and want to come up to me - but at the beginning I didn't get why they thought she liked me - at all. Turns out, you've pretty much explained it to me now, her body language was the equivalent of a puppy's. I remember even, rarely ever seeing her flick her tongue, and now I know why. Here's the funniest, that snake was 4 years old, and the owner said, in the future, they wanted to give her to someone whom loved her, closer to her retirement, since it seemed unfair to spend all her life "alone", per say. Without being handled more often, and loved as much as she could. You guessed it, they wanted me to keep her one day, but I promptly told them I lived far-away, and had no money whatsoever to keep the lady.... although, I still think about her. Maybe we will meet again, and maybe I will get to keep her...but I'm jobless and downright homeless because of personal-issues, so...I don't think I'll ever see her again... Lady, her actual name, was a Boa Constrictor. And yes, she was, is, beautiful.

These videos are so entertaining and informative, thank you so much for making them The little text subtitles for the snakes in some of your videos are darling

I am not one that likes snakes, but seeing your passion towards them got me through the video and i actually learned a couple of things

I have to explain to my friends EVERY time I take out my ball python, "if the head jerks back and the snake is tense and keeps a close eye on you, THEN it'll strike. It's not gonna strike if it's just resting and its neck resembles an S". Thanks for making this, I can show it to them so I won't have to explain every time XD

I find it adorable how "Doug" has himself wrapped around her like a belt to make sure he doesn't fall

“they’re on a mission” me in my head: * plays pirates on the carabian *

I recently rescued a cornsnake and I'm trying to learn how to read his behaviors so I can know how to make him happy! So thank you for this video!!

My bull snake "rattles" his tail every time he eats. I'm not sure if he is trying to make me run away while he eats or if it's directed at his mice. I leave him alone but it's really cute. Such a good noodle.

The snakes she's holding throughout the video: _"Why is she talking to a camera?"_

My ball python Doink loves to chill in an S curve. Confused me for the first couple weeks I had him- there is a lot of conflicting research out there. Thanks for being a great resource!

I just got a new ball python yesterday and this was very useful! She doesn’t seem stressed at all!

Everyone is this comment section: I like snakes. Me: Is that a oddish flower pot with the right plant to make it look like an oddish in the background.

I can't stop laughing when she said, "So they die." at 11:54

Am I the only person that wants a pet snake 😂 they’re so cute

So glad I stumbled upon this video, I just got a hognose and it was so nose when I got her and now she’s grumpy and always hissing and false charging every time I go in there. So thanks for that segment I learned a lot! She’s awesome so I’m trying really hard to work with her but she’s always my first snake so my nerves are also settling in 😅

So.... hognoses scare away predators with the power of sneezing?

Wow, you're really confident and articulate. What a great video. Subscribed

Excellent video. Lots of good information in nice, bite-size (ha ha!) bits. As always with SD content, I learn something and I get entertained. Many thanks and much love to Emily, the snakes and Ed, the wonderful cameraman (not to be confused with the Candyman! That’s another video). ❤🐍

"Most ball pythons dont like being touched in the face" Bro i feel that on a personal level XD

Hognose Baby: "Ah, i know a spawn camper when i see one." * sigh * "I accept my fate."

As an author, I appreciate educational videos like this. Really helps me to more accurately portray beings. :)

You can 100% see the difference between a strike s and a non strik s. Thats one thing I have always been curious about thank you for this! I am not a person who would get a sanke more because I am just not knowlegable enough for their care but its fascinating learning their personality and body language! Awesome video!

You’re honestly the reason why I’m no longer scared of snakes.
