VENOMOUS - Animation

Felt like animating some ssssnakessss because I think they're neat.

Sorry I keep disappearing, the last year or two have been pretty hectic. Relocating overseas is pretty stressful, I haven't had a lot of time to animate or keep up with the art world on social media ^^'

As a snake researcher you have no *idea* how happy I am to see each snake here clearly had real species referenced. No 'boas' with viper fangs, or 'rattlesnakes' with hoods, or 'mambas' with slit pupils.

For anyone wondering what snakes are all shown here~
0:01 and 0:07 - Coral Snake (Has the Hurt Juice) and Two Milk Snakes (Does not have the Hurt Juice)
0:12 - Close up of the Coral Snake's head (Cutey~ Do not boop though)
0:21 - Copperhead Pit Viper realizing he's been spotted
0:24 - Copperhead showing us his pretty lil Teeths
0:25 - Copperhead having a meal (Presumably a big tasty rat)
0:29 - Black Mamba giving the viewer a painful lil kiss
0:36 - Black Mamba doing a slither
0:40 - Diamondback Rattlesnake shaking it's danger maraca
0:42 - King Cobra showing off his lovely hood (He's not a happi snek)

The beginning is absolutely GENIUS. Having the song say “catch a liar by the toe” with the venomous coral snake hidden among non venomous milk snakes? Glorious.

Nobody:
The Danger Noodles trying to convince me that they’re as a matter of fact not friend-shaped:

As someone who studies snakes and owns several...the like inhale size doubling you animated is SO on point. Like that inhale, double in size, pupil dialation is something I've seen my 'Baby girl' do when she's feeling fussy.

AS A SNAKE ENTHUSIAST I AM HAPPY TO SEE ANATOMICALLY CORRECT SNAKES

[hunterzz_]

two milksnakes and a coral snake super clever! (red touches yellow, your a dead fellow. red touches black, your an okay jack.)
this is super cute, the fangs you drew and the proportions of the snakes are amazing!

I love how a very talented animator just heard this song and went. "Oh yeah, venomous snakes, love those spicy guys." And then proceeded to dedicate a very long time just to animate snakes. Love it, giving them danger ropes the recognition they deserve.

The irony of this getting recommended to me minutes after my dog gets bitten by a copperhead. Of course as a snake lover I had to watch.

i like how the snake featured in the "catch a liar by the toe" part is a scarlet king snake, a known fake of a coral snake

[Violet_Jedi_Sylveon]

I love that all the snakes look somewhat threatening or 'scary' and then there's the coral snake with it's derpy lil ditto face, amazing.

Also snake animation! I love snakes! 100/10 for the danger noodles!

While the rhyme "Red on yellow, kill a fellow; red on black, friend of Jack" is good here in Texas, we have some coral snakes who are nearly all black with yellow stripes by the head!

And in central and South America, many coral snakes, such as the aquatic coral snake, actually follow the red touches black description. The rhyme is only really useful in the States, and even so, the Arizona coral snake doesn't really have yellow. It's more white.

But despite this, the use of snakes, the accurate anatomy, the posture, the body structure, and the fact that the pupils are used correctly is absolutely astounding. I love the detail with the rattlesnake. Popping its head out, its pupil goes from round to a slit. Because that's one of the biggest things as a snake educator, I have to explain to people: just because the snake has a slit pupil doesn't mean it's venomous. A rattlesnake in low lighting or even a cottonmouth or copperhead is gonna have a round pupil, and multiple venomous species around the planet have round pupils, including the Black mamba and the whole cobra-type snake, both of the king cobra and the Naja genus.

Excellent job.

The fact that so many comments on this video *cannot* agree about the venomous to nonvenomous snakes or correctly identify the *actually* venomous snake in the beginning gives me Anxiety. The guy with the black head is a Western Coral Snake, the redheads are scarlet king snakes. There's one venomous snake to two venomous snakes.

THIS IS SO SCIENTIFICALLY ACCURATE I LOVE IT SO MUCH IM SO HAPPY

[WiFiDown]

Wouldn't be a snake video without a cobra. Cobras are definitely my favorite snake, their hood makes them look so cool and menacing

[apollofell]

Hehehe the California King snakes hanging out like "yeah I'm venomous all my friends think I'm the venomest guy around!"

[garden_creature]

I love the extra detail at the beginning "catch a liar by the toe" with the coral snakes (venomous) winding around a kingsnake (nonvenomous). Very cool! Love this animation!

[TygertheZebra]

I love how the coral snake is hiding within the king snakes at the beginning ❤️💛🖤

[KaiLeeAspires]

I love how in the first shot, and maybe some others, there were snakes that aren't actually venomous or deadly. Some snakes have a camouflage/defense pattern that makes them look similar to actual venomous snakes so predators stay away!

The one I recognized was in the first shot where there is a snake with two black/one white patterns and there is a snake with one black/two white pattern, or the venomous Coral and the non-venomous Scarlet King snakes.

I don't know why the most cutest snakes have to be the most venomous, I mean seriously every time I look at a cobra I'm like damn your hood is so adorable, or rattlesnakes that have those adorable rattles like they're about to play in a band.
