Snakes

I could really boil this video down to one word if I tried hard enough and that word would be "nope". A Missouri man just shared a video of a cottonmouth snake who was on the hunt and it's as intimidating sight as you're likely to see in the Show Me State.

Strange smells in homes are not unusual. If you are a homeowner, you understand what I'm talking about. However, there is one smell in a Wisconsin home that should concern you immediately. If you have a sudden odor of cucumbers, it would be a good idea to get you and your family out as quickly as possible.

Please make this stop now. Can I open my eyes yet? There's new video showing a bark scorpion hanging out with a couple of snakes in the Missouri Glades and I have all the nightmare fuel I need for the next few years.

Everyone understands the weird smells that can permeate a home. Most are expected, but if you ever smell cucumbers and don't have any out where that would make sense, that's a good reason to panic especially in Missouri. I'll explain.

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

I'll check my calendar, but I am probably busy that day. But, maybe you're interested in accepting an invitation to a birthday party for a real Missouri 2-headed snake.

From Copperheads to Red Milk Snakes check out this YouTube video of a group that is looking for snakes in the Ozarks of Missouri, we had no idea there were this many kids of snakes out there...

It's the one Missouri lake that visitors most often want to take a dip in because it's the deepest and is in the heart of the most beautiful part of Missouri. It's also good to know if that sounds good to you that it also happens to be home to the most deadly snakes in the state.

Are you tired of the latest internet best of list? I've found something interesting about a Missouri place that was recently named the 2nd safest city in the state. I think the word "safe" might be questionable as I've since learned that it's also home to just about every snake and snake imaginable. Oh, and it's got lots of possums, too.
