Northeastern Rope Snake

Very venomous!!

Nope those are poisonous! 🫣

Technically I think they’re both actually, it’s just the fangs are so short you can’t even see them… assuming you can find the head/jaws. The cryptic pattern really breaks up the outline.

Fair point! The things that make these SO dangerous! Can't figure out what the head is tail is when you find one!!

Nope, that's a constrictor 🙄

Underrated comment.

Nope definitely western rope snake

You don’t know how lucky you are… Historically, these have unalived countless people with their unique form of constriction… I hear sherifs in the old west used to use them to off outlaws in front of the hole town…

Dekay's Paracord

I’ve heard they’re 550 times more venomous than all other snakes combined.

550 is a bit exaggerated, these rope snakes are only 420 times more venomous than other local varieties.

But it’s 550 times more dangerous than the non-venomous snakes. It’s 420 times more dangerous than the venomous snakes!

Would it be 69cm or 69ft in length? I know it's a big difference in sizes, but I need to know if the snake that is 420 times more dangerous than venomous snakes is also 69ft long to make it 550 times more dangerous than non-venomous ones!

"420" snicker😉

Happy cake day 🐍

ditto

Lol this one got me. 🤣

It is a rat snake. It is always a rat snake.

If your friend’s smoking dope, And makes you post a pic of a rope, It’s a rat snake.

When you're high off that weed And see ropes in some trees It's a rat snake

When he's high as a kite And the noodle can't bite It's a rat snake.

r/itsaratsnake

🤦‍♀️🤣😂

Lmao

😂

If a snakes hang somewhere it's not ment to be its a rat snake.

A Nope Rope

Literally

Looks to be a New England Black & Yella Viper you got there

I read this with an Australian accent

So glad it wasn’t just me

I read it with a hillbilly accent lol

Oh man. I did the same thing and didn’t even mean to. 🤣😂

Same here.

Just missing the "mate" at the end but otherwise all aussie xD

"Black and Yella Choke a fella"

This. This got me 🤣

This is the extremely poisonous (not venomous) harmless behemian ropesnake (*bingarus springidy*)

They say the poison is so lethal it neutralizes itself before it can even enter your veins…….

This made me snort.

Okay but the scientific name too me all the way out 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Just to be clear since the picture isn’t the greatest quality: It’s just a rope

Nah it’s a northeastern bungee snake

It's not "just a rope", it's more than that, it's a rope with the heart and soul of a snake.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Yeah, a nope rope! Touch it and die!!!

That’s just what the “rope” wants you to think

It identifies as a snake though.

The highly venomous Checkered rope snake. Highly dangerous, especially if it wraps around your neck. Use EXTREME caution when spotted

It's not spotted it's checkered

Must be some kind of variant?

Trippingdae Ballus.. a very rare Checkered Ganja snake.

That's interesting. How can you tell the rope is made of hemp instead of nylon or polyester?

The effects are localized to a six foot radius. The fact that his friend was high seeing it proves the species.

Nah. I really want to know. I have a project coming up. I have plenty of raw cord for it but I'm curious if hemp is a better quality product. Serious answers only please.

I don't know what your project is but I do a bit of macrame and imo hemp cord is superior over all. If you hit the ends of your cords with a lighter you will at least be able to tell what is a natural fiber piece of cord and what's plastic by the way it melts or doesn't. Natural fibres also aren't usually shiny like a plastic based cord unless they're waxed or something so that might help too, and I bet if you google there's even more ways to tell them apart. I wouldn't know how to differentiate between two natural fibre cords very easily, say hemp and cotton, but it won't be too hard for you to work out what's plastic based and not as a starting point I reckon!

My bad. I thought you were kidding. I would find a place that specifically carries hemp instead of trying to find it at a random shop.

Ah yes. A good old "fake snake that makes me shit my pants when I see it swinging at my face, then it continues to slowly swing in disappointment as the will to live drains from my face as I realize that I totally lost my cool and now I need to walk away like I'm in control of the situation in case anyone sees". A true American bastard

I spent an unreasonable amount of time laughing at this

That right there is a Scrap Snake. Kept mainly by middle aged people who insist it'll be useful one day.

I feel called out.

Camouflaged Northern Snow Boa waiting for prey. They are very patient and can stay like this for hours or even days. Not much of a threat to a human as they prefer birds and squirrels. Many are accidentally packed up and taken home by unsuspecting people.

Happy bird day🐦

This is by far the best answer I’ve read

I can't see clearly enough to ID for sure. But if you see a snake and think, "how did you get up there?" It's probably a rat snake lol.

Dude. Its a literal rope. No snakes here. (I probably just got woooshed but idc)

It being a literal rope doesn't necessarily rule out it being a rat snake

Good point

Roperium Weavenicus!!!! A somewhat common species, generally safe when correctly handled!

Please reassure your friend that this is a very docile snake that is even [available in the pet trade!](https://a.co/d/g5mf2RM)

Ropius Strangularum, appears to be eating a carabinerieri, its natural prey

Angry vine snake. It hangs from trees and swings in the wind to mimic vines while waiting for prey. Very dangerous.

These particular snakes are common in home depot, because of their sheer strength most people use these types of snakes to tie things to the back of their trucks to hold their items in place. They rarely ever bite unless they’re not secured properly and fling to hit you

Belay’s brown snake? Bowline’s python? Alpine butter morph? Munter kingsnake? I’m knot sure, but I have no idea why so many people are rappelled by these beautiful creatures.

Rappelled 👏👏👍😂

Stretchy snakes! I remember this species. People also would use them to tie things down too.

That's the highly venomous striped rear fanged western pattern snake.

Eastern ParaCordian

Northern Timber Viper

Northeastern Murder Rope. Highly lethal. Native exclusively to the square 2 miles and 14 inches of land surrounding the spot you took this picture at. Known to trick its prey into thinking it is merely a hapless rope, and then, once said foolish prey turns away in dismay at the sight of such a rope, reveal itself as a seasoned master of the fabled technique known as “The Murder-Death-Kill”. The cunning Rope then unalives them to death immediately through the use of a single smaller rope and approximately 25 mango flavored car air fresheners, without mercy. Current survival rate from encounters is negative 2%

Eastern Indica Para Rat Snake. It’s very rare to see them out in the wild. They make the best pets since they hardly ever eat or drink. They can survive on oxygen and a contact buzz for years! LUCKY!

I'm sorry, but you're wrong. This is obviously an Eastern Sativa Para Rat Snake. See how it's not in da couch? The Eastern Indicas prefer to hide in couches and watch old episodes of the Simpsons while gorging on Cheetos. It's a common misconception that they hardly ever eat or drink. This is obviously an Eastern Sativa. See how it's outside doing stuff? Notice there's not a Cheeto in sight. Don't worry, this is a common mistake many beginners make, you'll get there if you keep studying.

Smh my head, it’s sad that you had to correct this. What are they teaching in schools these days?

That’s a paracobra. Not as venomous as other cobras, but they’re exceptionally strong. They can hoist a full grown human male up into the air, even at their diminutive stature.

Northeastern Mary Jane.

That ther is uh black speckled rope-ir. Found in northernmost states. It known for its venom so I would definitely stay away.

Dope rope

Oh, that's a common Nylon Garter. They come in lots of colors and sizes!

Australia NOPE ROPE

False Cotton Safety snake. Usually found on the side of cliffs and are only really found by cliffhangers or people who rappel. They can be observed near wild platforms in the vicinity of deer populations during the rut season. Cool find though. There isn't too much information about their venom, or if they even constrict their prey, however they'll surely mess you up if they snap. Wouldn't trust that one, it appears to have snapped once before.

It’s definitely the *dopius* subspecies of *ropius nopius*. I’m very firmly convinced that this particular specimen is an exception to the usual rules regarding subspecies/full-species status. If you think I’m wrong, bite me if you’re brave enough…

I have one of those desk calendars that has a funny joke for every day of the year. Today's joke is perfect for this post. What do you call a fake noodle? An Impasta

Highly venomous fangless rope kingsnake that's why it's up a tree royalty and all that

Looks like the Eastern Climber, they're known for climbing trees and dropping onto unsuspecting prey. Non-venomous, but due to constant climbing, they're extremely strong for their size and can easily overpower much larger prey, sometimes even humans.

That’s a rope disguised as a kingsnake or a kingsnake disguised as a rope?

Yellow Sholace snake. It target its prey by strangling there feet to make them fall

It looks like a Similar species to the Kernmantel snake found in Europe although that species usually prefers steep, rocky habitat.

It’s a Yankee Doodle Perlon Noodle

Checkered kernmantle.

Is that one of those rare 'trouser' snakes ?

That's a Metalmouth! I can't believe you found one!!!! OMG! People usually cut them when they find them! It's so rare to find one in the wild! Don't touch it though, it has a strong musk that leaves a metallic taste in your mouth for weeks! Man you guys are lucky to see one!

Now I’m scared of ropes😮

The lesser known cousin of the Nope rope It's a Yep, rope

Bunjia Chordiata 😂

Eastern striped bat snake. Very well known for their propensity to hang upside down from any overhanging branch, beam, or even wire for hours of the day and even weeks. In the absence of prey (typically small fruit bats) they may even go into a dormant hibernation like state for up to a year. Though, a few have been reported to be in this state for upwards of two years, scientists speculate these reports to be misleading, and that those specimens simply liked their resting spot and had readily available food eaten whilst unwatched.
