With stout bodies and saddle-shaped markings, these shy snakes only bite if threatened, and bites are rare — fewer than a dozen reported each year, with no fatalities in 40 years. Found mostly along Georgian Bay and the Bruce Peninsula, their range is shrinking due to habitat loss and roads, so if you’re exploring near the Great Lakes, watch your step. And yes — there’s another mildly venomous snake in the province too. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
