It never ceases to amaze me that many people convince themselves a snake is venomous, even if you tell them you are sure it is not. And in this case, a simple internet search would show them the snake you found looks nothing like a copperhead.

Here are some pics of a (young adult?) copperhead I rescued/relocated a couple years ago. (I live in North Carolina, so there may be some slight differences between it and a "pure" Northern copperhead.) If the people you live with are interested, maybe they can look at these pictures to see how far off they are.

That's a really nice milksnake, btw. Great job saving the little guy from the mob!













>>Can someone please confirm that this is NOT a baby Copperhead? I found it under a rock today in PA and will be releasing it tomorrow after I take some decent photos of it (I know these are horrible)
>>
>>The people I live with are hysterical and are convinced this is a Copperhead that will kill me but I'm pretty darn sure it's a Milk snake. It's about 7 inches long. Please help me end the hysteria (unless I'm wrong,of course)
>>
>>Thank You.
>>SNAKE
