I see this comment a lot that snakes are not aggressive. I is old. Many years ago in North Carolina I broke the Golden rule of riding atv's by yourself. It was a major passion for me at the time. At about a mile out by myself I was building a jump on a nice straight away next to a creek. I was there for quite sometime. An hour or so in my hair started standing up and I felt like I was being watched. No idea it was weird. So I start looking around like what is happening. There is this long stick in the middle of the path about 3 feet behind me. Looking at it I swear it moved. So I kind of lean in like did that stick just effin move? Did not move forward and then it moved towards me so I stepped back. Sure enough it was a water moccasin of a good size. It just started coming. I had a pick axe in my hand and completely panicked. I threw it at it lol. As I quickly was stepping back it became a sprint. I don't care what anyone says that thiccums stick was coming. After a certain time it stopped and I watched it go all the way back to where we started. There was a hole it went into around where contact was initiated. I grabbed my stuff and left. Eff that jump lol. Is this not territorial behavior or aggressive behavior? Maybe it was a monday?
