In this short video, my family and I were herping in the Missouri Ozarks! We came across a piece of road trash and I decided to look under the plastic. There was a huge beautiful Western Rat Snake. A few moments later, I realized that there was a juvenile Copperhead Pit Viper next to the Rat Snake! I was thrilled to see this! I love encountering pit vipers while snake hunting! If you love reptiles, herping and snake hunting as much as I do, then THIS is the video for you!
