Will a common garter snake eat my fish?
Comments (2)Oh, yessiree they will eat fish. I'm glad they eat minnows since the DDH dumped his leftovers from fishing in my goldfish/koi pond, but I don't want them eating my babies so my DS and I captured them (5 total last year), put them in pillowcases and let them go in a cemetery near some woods.

Comments (15)I think most of the ERs here have anti-venom because of the amount poisonous snakes we have. We have a lot of rattle snakes here too...not sure if all of them are poisonous though. If you know they are there and you are cautious, you usually don't get bit. It is people who are not from around here and don't know to watch out for them who are in danger. I know to never go in water here, and never walk in high grass...and never reach under a storage shed or deck....the places to find either a mocassin or a rattler...I teach my kids that too. Of course when I was a kid, I used to purposefully go to those places just to find the snakes and get their eggs. It is amazing I am still alive. Honestly they do not scare me anymore, it's when you surprise them and yourself that you are in danger. The most common way to get bit is to step on one under a pile of leaves...the rattlers love to hide under leaves. LOL at the sucking venom! I have always heard that too....always wonder if it would work. From my understanding it is not recommended since you get the venom in you mouth that way. I know when I got bit by a spider once, they cut open the bite area and popped the venom pockets and suctioned it out...then they stuffed it with gauze to absorb any left over venom...spider venom makes honeycombs and spreads slowly. Snake venom travels much faster, so I do not think the sucking would work all that well. Amanda...See Moreoff topic: snake eat snake

Comments (8)Growing up in Wisconsin with a dad who loved to fish, he always made the same comment when we'd see a duck and her brood swim by the boat: "Muskie's gonna have good eatin'!" and then he'd tell me how he'd actually seen big fish take the little birds from below "like a shark - chomp!" Poor little ducklings!...See MoreSara_in_philly
