Me Vs The Fastest Snake in the Everglades!
Snakes on the Brain - S3 - E4
This is the Everglades racer. Don't worry this'll be the last racer for a while. But like its close cousin the black racer, is extremely common and is a wonderful predator to have in south Florida. Especially to keep Florida's invasive lizards to a minimum.
Snakes on the Brain: Season 3 - 7 Episode s
3x1 - Brown Water Snake Bites Me!
June 12, 2023
Welcome to season 3 snakes of Florida. I'm sorry to say it but this season is going to be quite short compared to my other seasons. I simply just didn't get see very much while I was in Florida because it was so dry. I saw most of the common species that occur throughout the state but certainly none of the less common ones. Hopefully we can change that in the future. Anyway, the brown water snake is one of Florida's most common water snakes and I was really hoping to see one while I was here, and they were prolific down here in the everglades.
3x2 - I Found the Best Pet Snake!
June 19, 2023
Here it is. A wild corn snake. Very few of the snakes I catch and feature on this channel actually make good pets but the corn snake certainly does. That said, don't take one from the wild to keep as a pet. Make sure it's captive bred and good at eating frozen thawed rodents and it'll make a great beginner snake.
3x3 - Florida Watersnake VS Florida Cottonmouth
June 28, 2023
Here we go again, another water snake. But it a good one. This is the Florida banded water snake. Though I only saw a few, they're probably the most common water snake in Florida. And they turned out to be so much prettier than I expected. I also talk a little bit about how you can tell the difference between this and a cottonmouth.
3x4 - Me Vs The Fastest Snake in the Everglades!
July 6, 2023
This is the Everglades racer. Don't worry this'll be the last racer for a while. But like its close cousin the black racer, is extremely common and is a wonderful predator to have in south Florida. Especially to keep Florida's invasive lizards to a minimum.
3x5 - Why is this Garter Snake Blue?
July 12, 2023
This is definitely the prettiest snake from this season. The blue striped garter snake was high on my list to see while I was in Florida and the salt marshes certainly delivered.
3x6 - Worst Lizard Bite of my Life!
July 19, 2023
My first episode of Snakes on the Brain without featuring a snake. South Florida is one of the most invaded places on earth to find nonnative lizards. I saw roughly 7 different invasive lizard species in the span of only about 2 days. And that's just tip of the iceberg. I'm really itching to get back down there to find and catch the rest.
3x7 - The Last Watersnake
August 4, 2023
This is the Florida green water snake. Most water snakes are very similar with what they eat, how they're built, how they defend themselves, and what sorts of habitats they're found in. So I completely understand why seeing another water snake is nothing very exciting. Lucky for you this is the last one for a little while. But getting the opportunity to catch and feature this species is a privilege I haven't taken for granted because I live far away from where most water snakes range.
