Rattlesnakes can be found almost everywhere in the United States.
The Eastern Diamondback in considered the most venomous species in North America. Surprisingly, juveniles are considered more dangerous than adults. Most species of rattlesnakes have hemotoxic venom, destroying tissue, degenerating organs and causing coagulopathy (disrupted blood clotting).

Untreated rattlesnake bites, especially from larger species, are very often fatal. However, antivenin, when applied in time, reduces the death rate to less than 4%.Identification:
Rattlesnakes can usually be identified by two key characteristics that non-venomous snakes lack. First, they have a broad triangular head, narrow neck and thick body. Secondly, they have a rattle on the end of their tail. (Source)
There are a lot of rattlesnake species in the US so it’s not always easy to identify them from a distance.
(Strangely, in this picture you can see a dragonfly siting on this snake.)How long do you have to get to the hospital before you see God?
It depends on the type of rattlesnake. Most rattlesnakes have hemotoxic blood, meaning it affects localized tissue. Some accounts say that “it feels like being hit with a baseball bat by a pro baseball player, or like getting hit by a bus”. Some are a little nuerotoxic and that would affect breathing and your heart. Nuerotoxic venom hurts worse. Hemotoxic venom, depending on where you are bit, could take hours to kill you if not treated with antivenom. Nuerotoxic venom would kill you much faster. The farther away the bite is from your vital organs, the more time you have potentially. Consider that you have two hours max to seek medical attention. Immobilize the wound, keeping it below heart level. Do not apply a tourniquet, cut or suction the wound, and do not apply ice. If it is necessary to walk, do so slowly, and rest frequently. (Source)
The copperheads vary in color from reddish to golden tan. The colored bands on their body are typically hourglass-shaped. Most adults are 18–36 inches long. They are not usually aggressive, but will often freeze when frightened. Workers are more likely to be bitten when they unknowingly step on or near a copperhead.
Though the copperhead bite is rarely lethal (only 3 confirmed deaths in the last 120 years) they account for more bites than any other venomous snake in the country (about 4,000 annually, roughly half of all venomous snakebites).Identification:
The copperhead is probably one of the most commonly misidentified snakes in the US.
Copperhead has a thick, stout body. Looking at this picture you can see how the snake is thick.
Copperheads are typically brown or orange in color, the shade of dead leaves. This coloration and pattern helps them to blend in with the forest floor. The pattern is comprised of wide, irregular bands that that are darker than the background color of the snake. (Source)
The head is always heart-shaped. (common for venomous snakes)How long would it take for Copperhead venom to kill you?
The bite is extremely painful and will require minor medical treatment. There are often long term problems to the extremity that is bitten.
A person that has been bitten 3 times by Copperheads:
“I personally have been bitten 3 times by copperheads in my collection & have gotten REALLY uncomfortable & had a fair degree of localized tissue damage, but have not developed gangrene or had any really serious complications. (…) the use of anti-venom serum carries a real danger to the bite victim of a possible severe allergic reaction that could kill the patient while the bite usually won’t.”
You can bump into them in wetland areas, rivers or lakes. The Cottonmouth (or water moccasin) is North America’s only venomous water snake.Identification:
Water moccasins have dark stripes by each nostril and pale snouts.
Nonvenomous water snakes have round pupils, whereas cottonmouths have vertical, catlike pupils. Cottonmouths also have a triangular head, and nonvenomous snakes have a more slender, elliptical head shape.
The adult snake’s skin is dark tan, brown, or nearly black, with vague black or dark brown crossbands.How long would it take for Cottonmouth venom to kill you?
One bite doesn’t kill you directly.
But if you are in the water you’ll become very fast incapacitated enough to drown. There was a case a couple of years ago in North Carolina (Source)
Also … if you are bitten multiple times it can be fatal. Consider that you have one hour max to seek medical attention.
The coral snake is the most toxic of the four on this list. And, outrageously, there is NO commercially available anti-venom for coral snake bites in the U.S.Identification:
Coral Snake has one very similar fellow: the King Snake. As long as you know this difference it’s extremely easy to identify.
The Coral snake colors are always red, then yellow (thinner band), then black.
Here’s how to make this easy to remember:
“Red touch yellow, kill a fellow.” (Deadly Coral snake)
“Red touch black, friend of Jack.” (Harmless King snake) (Source)How long would it take for Coral Snake venom to kill you?
The snake’s neurotoxic venom causes rapid paralysis and respiratory failure in its prey; however, according to the National Institutes of Health, it can take many hours for symptoms to appear in humans. The first symptoms can be slurred speech, double vision, and muscular paralysis. (Source) Consider that you have one hour max to seek medical attention.General Safety

*Don’t pick up the snake or try to trap it (as some folks did)
*Don’t apply a tourniquet, don’t slash the wound with a knife (above or below)
*Don’t suck out the venom
*Don’t apply ice or immerse the wound in water
*Don’t drink alcohol as a painkiller and don’t drink caffeinated beverages
*All Snake Bite Kits are dangerous and should not be used (Jordan Benjamin – herpetologist specialized in venomous snakes). This was also confirmed by the Snake Bite Poison Line

Everyone has heard a version of this poem:
Red touches yellow, kills a fellow. Red touches black, friend of Jack or
Red touch yellow, kills a fellow. Red touches black, venom lack. or
Red touch yellow, death says hello. Black touch red, keep your head. or
Yellow touch red, you be dead. Red touch black, eat Cracker Jack. or
Red on yellow and you’re a dead fellow. Red on black, you’re alright Jack.
Or Red on Yellow, Watch out, Fellow. Red on Black, Friend of Jack.
This rhyme or one of the many variations of it, have been used all over North America to help people from one year old to one hundred easily identify the deadly coral snake from a scarlet snake, corn snake or California king snake, or myriad of other similar snakes none of which is poisonous. While everyone seems to have their own variation to this children’s rhyme, the meaning is simple and to the point. If you are tromping through the woods, in a sandy desert, or a marshy area look for a snake that has red, yellow and black bands. You might be in the presence of a type of coral snake. The eastern coral snake prefers wooded areas, while the Arizona coral snake prefers dry sandy arid areas. The Texas coral snake is found in a variety of marsh or woods. No matter what type of snake you see, the premise is the same. If the yellow and red bands touch, the snake is poisonous.
The Coral snake’s striping will be a very distinctive wide red band, thin yellow band, wide black band then thin yellow band repeated along the snake’s body. Compare this to deadly coral snake’s NON poisonous cousins; a California King has a wide red band, thin black band, wide white band thin black band or a scarlet snake which has bands of yellow, black, red. Likewise the milk snake has a wide red band, medium black band, thin white band, medium back band wide red band, repeating down its body. There are a number of snakes with similar colors to the coral snake, but you can remain safe as long as you remember none have red touching yellow.
