Herping for Wild Snakes in Wisconsin!!

Now that Winter is finally behind us, it's herping season again! Today we adventure in Southeast Wisconsin to find wild snakes, and we find quite a few of them!! I'm not sure which was sassier; the hognose or the bullsnake...

Love how Ed and Emily have seen and dealt with "cooler" snakes, but get excited still with whatever they find in the wild still 😊❤

[RainzHollow]

I’ll never get over Emily’s aggressive friendliness with the snakes when grabbing them XD
Just “There you are! *cOmE hErE-“* and casually yoinking the *wild* snake lol

[Miciggy]

Someone give that hognose an Oscar. He earned it

[BryonyV]

I love how Emily is just constantly talking whilst the bullsnake just throws an absoloute fit 😂😂

[MeiLikesToDraw]

Omg, I love the most dramatic deaths of all time from the hog nose snake 😂

[choryllis]

**aggresive hiss**
"OH MY GOODNESS COME HERE!"

I love Emily's enthusiasm when it comes to snakes. It's so infectious!

Ed having the time of his life, basking on a rock.
Emily: Aww poor thing

[DEATHBYFIRE]

That hognose doing tongue flicks while 'dead' had me rolling! Definitely my favourite snakes of all time :)

[monatoth]

The excitement in Emily’s voice when she found the Hognpse was so wholesome ❤️❤️❤️

"Ed gave up and is now sitting on a rock." Ed is my spirit animal.

Great video. Note: the species you found in the bluffs don't live there year round. They migrate there in the fall for brumation/hibernation and remain there until early spring. Both species will move to the open prairie to mate and find food.

The way Emily just reached into the crevice for the bull snake 😆

[willow_haven]

Please do an updated meet all our snakes video! It'd be so interesting to see who you all still have vs your newer snakes 🐍

[ItsLyssD]

i love that you explain the whole controlled burns thing! I live in Australia so it’s vital here but not a lot of people actually understand why/how we do it :)

[Erissa]

I understand Ed's weakness. I too have a fear of heights. Though I do a bit better with slopes like that one. Mine is worse when I'm on hiking trails where there is a bit more of a sudden drop off.

Doesn't help that I've actually fallen off a cliff and was only saved by a metal pole I managed to grab and a classmate that was with me.

[nicholashlibka]

I love how you could hear the bullsnake quickly breath in heavily before continuing to hiss.

[telessiajones]

These hognose snakes are the funniest things I have seen in a long time. I love it. Take care you guys.

[lynneadams]

Emily telling the water snake to "go do snakey things" was extremely cute.

[sheHerTheyThem]

Ed not climbing is so me, whereas Emily being a mountain goat is TOTALLY my husband 😅. I was waiting to see Emily hanging on by her toes with a snake between her teeth dangling over the rocks just to tell Ed she found another critter where it doesn't belong 😅

[angelsinthewindow]

I am really in awe with how Emily has not actually gotten bit by any of these snakes she is handling in the wild at this point, especially the Bullsnakes when she is REACHING INTO A ANGRY SNAKE HOLE! Dear god, I could never do that!
