So You think You Want A Venomous Snake?

Pythona and other non venomous snakes i will be happy with

Only a jackass would want a venomous snake.....

I believe the laws on venomous snakes in the US are absurd you should need a license on a federal level to keep them not just state as well as specific training for handling care etc

Your into is way too loud and your content audio is way too low. Figure out your fkn equipment, dude.

I think a lot of people wanting to get into venomous snakes do not understand the upfront cost of owning them.
I have kept many cottonmouth and copperheads due to the simple fact that ever hospital in my area always had Crofab on hand and know the protocols.

That's a mean moccasin he striking

Amazing

I mean it’s only common sense that if you own a venomous snake you should have anti venom for that snake! I don’t know the shelf life but if you want to keep one it should be necessary to also keep at least a dozen doses for the snakes you keep.
There’s a new channel and he seems very immature and has quite a basic setup. That fool a just got an inland taipan. I doubt it was from Australia as we have a blanket ban on any export of reptiles.
The hospital there in the US surly wouldn’t have anti venom for that. Crazy!

this is not a pet at all. Its to keep nuclear , and explosive materials at home ....just like that

Bro you literally say in the beginning of the vid to not grab stuff out in front of a venomous snake no matter how confident you are and then proceed to grab the hook less than a foot away from the cottonmouth later in the vid like 🤨🤦

I'll never understand the fascination with owning something so dangerous.

Keeping these animals in cages is sad

Who would want a venomous snake as a pet?!?!?! 🙃

Venomous snake keeping? No thank you. I’ll enjoy seeing them through videos or a VERY secure glass enclosure.

i will never get a venomous snake, i own plenty non venomous species but it’s always nice reviewing this video, getting to understand more about this opportunity and caring for these animals.

Im not afraid of snakes but i i have handled constrictors and know enough about snakes that with a long hook i won't get bit but i don't fuck with venomous snakes unless i absolutely have to and im glad that was only once.

I have been chased by a cotton mouth. I have also seen one come out of the water like a Cobra and try to strike a friend while fishing. He didn't see it until it was by his leg. The only reason he didn't get bit was because I yelled at him to move. Cotton Mouths are aggressive depending on the circumstances. I really wish people would quit saying they aren't. I have fished for 40 yrs. I have see hundreds of cotton mouths that were just curious. I have only met 2 that were extremely aggressive (unprovoked). Always remember wild animals are "Wild". Stay safe

I was preparing some jokes for the comment section but this guy explained it so well and so earnestly that... I just gotta sit here and appreciate it

When snakes "chase" you, 99.9% of the time, they are trying to find the nearest form of cover where they can hide from you. If the nearest form of cover is right behind you, then that's where they'll go.

There are snakes that will do mock strikes, or mock charges, but chances are, you've never encountered the types of snakes that do that.

Why even have them . Let me go get a great white shark and make my pool a salt water pool

Only a pro or a crazy person would want one. How many local hospitals would have antivenin on hand for a cobra bite? Many probably wouldn’t have any for a rattlesnake bite never mind something like that.

Nope. I don’t think that at all. I know my limits.

This guy helped save Tyler Nolan’s life when he got bit by that cobra❤️

I'll stick to dogs and cats.

Solid advise, I would never own a snake of any kind but if I was considering I would follow the advise in this video

It's just a case of FAFO: If you fuck around you're gonna find out.

My question to those who think they can handle Gaboons, the most beautiful snake on Earth, is, are you prepared to possibly lose a limb and have organ failure if you happen to keep your life post bite?

Just talking right now about the speed and power of these snakes is making me shake with respect and awe

I’m new to your channel Tom, and I think you’re doing an awesome job. You deserve much respect

Best venomous snake: garter snake. Maybe a hognose.

I see that you handle that albino cobra very not safe. Good luck not ever making an error with your handling procedures.

Oh Tom is gonna start his bullshit monetized video. I can guess before he starts talking.
copperhead in USA for beginners, adder in Europe for beginners. Both domestic mild venomous with good antivenom available.
Pygmy rattlesnake as a 2nd for USA
EDIT: this Tom is giving good advice besides the 30 second blub

I just wouldn’t.

I would never own,touch, or play with ANY snake but I sure love watching them from my phone 😂

My chance of ever considering keeping venomous is definitiv zero, but I enjoy the educational content.

Wait a sec... didn't you just say to not open the case with your hands and you just did? Then you reached in front of it to grab your hook?

To be clear, I absolutely DO NOT want a venomous snake or any snake. I just find these videos fascinating despite my phobia.

The famous fuckaroundandfindout-noodles lol

3 snakes 1 cup ROFL

lol I absolutely do not want to have a venomous snake or reptile. I love watching these videos of professionals doing what they love but zoos is as close as I ever want to get personally.

Ive kept rattlers

Nope. I know I don't want a venemous snake. Actually, I don't want to be anywhere near one. I enjoy watching people interact with them. I also enjoy learning about them, but I don't want any part of them other than that. 😊

None the only good snake has been skinned and made into a wallet or something useful

Dingo Dinkelman RIP.

Solid advice all round. “Don’t fuck with it”

Not a chance. In my neighborhood I can choose from Cobras, Kraits and Malayan Pit Vipers. You can have them all.

I've got venomous and she's a sweetheart!! (she's a hognose!! :) )

Anti venom should be a must for anyone handling hots.
Excellent advice.
I will not own any reptile.
I own greyhounds and I do have a budget for my vet and dental bills for my animals. Even my vehicle and fenced back yard is part of this game.
Anyome who owns any animal should be finniacially responsible for their pet!😊

It needs to be and should have been common sense law! In all states in all the damn world.
