Snakes

The most common and dangerous snakes in New Jersey.

The internet has named this common New Jersey snake the zombie snake due to its strange behavior.

New Jersey is home to two venomous snakes, neither of which is the water moccasin.

One state should be more worried than others when the snakes are more active this year.

They're invasive. They're creepy. They jump. Doesn't exactly sound like earthworms but they are. Oh, and they wriggle like snakes.

Did you know that New Jersey has nearly two dozen different types of snakes? And the names are as chilling as spotting one.

Now, we all know the Jersey Shore is home to a few different kinds of snakes but...just imagine hanging out on your porch, you're relaxing in the sun and all of a sudden you see a 4ft snake slowly making its way through your yard. I know it's not an anaconda or a rattlesnake but many of us are not snake people, most of our snake IQs are terrible!

We already told you about those 17 year periodical cicadas emerging this spring...BILLIONS of these bugs lie dormant for 17 years and then pop up though the ground like a horror movie. That is supposed to happen this May. Well hang onto your hat because apparently this influx of cicadas triggers other things to happen like an increase in pit vipers! PIT VIPERS!

How do you like your pizza? Thin crust? Deep dish? Pepperoni? Maybe a nice slice of Hawaiian? Perhaps a side of...snake? Wait, what? Recently, a North Carolina family threw a pizza in the oven for a quick dinner. But when they went to remove it 20 minutes later, they noticed that a snake had somehow slithered inside the oven and was now a crispy side dish...

Here's the video that Andy Chase and the Lovely Christina were talking about on air today. A guy comes across a Copperhead snake, and decapitates it in in fear of his son or dog getting bit. Watch how even after the the snake has been decapitated it still bites it's own body. Nature is cool!

I'm sick and tired of these bleeping snakes on my bleeping bike!
