Not poisonous?

If it’s a Northern watersnake, it is non-venomous

Poisonous= you bite it, you die Venomous = it bites you, you die

(Dying not found in all cases, side effects may vary)

Looks like it's been eating lots of mice.

Are you fat shaming a snake? lol

ForestOrca@kbin.social · 5 pts · 2y

Nope. Just noting that it looks healthy, and should not be harmed as it's doing something useful around the farm. Snek just doing their job, living their best life.
