Cottonmouth

The cottonmouth snake (Agkistrodon piscivorus) is also known under the name water moccasin, or a combination of names such as cottonmouth moccasin, highland water moccasin or North American water moccasin. However, the name cottonmouth snake is more precise as water moccasin can be many different types of snakes. It is a relatively large, thick-, and fat looking snake with wide, dark bands along its body. Cottonmouth darkens with age and at some point the bands become obscured. As copperheads they have a greenish tail-tip. The cottonmouth snake is the most aquatic of the Agkistrodon's, although it can be found as far as one mile away from water1.
Some people fear unprovoked attacks from cottonmouth snakes, and other venomous snakes for that snake, but such fears are unfounded. Studies have shown that cottonmouths are unlikely to bite unless being picked up.
