No snakes that seems weird to me. Where I grew up we had three types and all would kill you. So I’ve always stayed away from snakes. Now were we live there is more types some non venomous as well but I just stay away from all

Oh, I meant there are no venomous snakes. Our snakes are harmless. The ones I have seen are garter snakes, ribbon snakes, and corn snakes.

Ah yes I got you now. I guess you wouldn’t be so fearful or cautious around snakes then ?

Exactly. I can certainly see why you are. When I visited Costa Rica they talked about poisonous snakes. They described one that was so venomous that you could not survive. If you got bit by this particular snake, they advised that you just sit down, relax, and wait to die. Scared the hell out of me.

Similar to the ones where I grew up very unlikely to survive. And other types you need to try and stay calm and relaxed and wait for help to try not to get the toxins around your body any quicker
