Wildlife Safety Reminder: Baby Copperheads

• In late summer copperheads give birth to live young, typically six to seven babies, although it can be as many as 15.
• Young copperheads are 8 to 10 inches long and are born with both fangs and venom.
• The young have bright yellow tail tips that they wiggle to attract prey such as frogs and lizards. 

Outdoor Snake Safety Precautions:

• If you are out at night, always use a flashlight, because most snakes are active on warm nights. Shine before your step.
• Never pick up or attempt to move a snake.
• Don’t put your hands or feet in places where you can’t see.
• Wear leather gloves if you have to handle debris, logs, rocks and other objects where a snake could be hiding.
• Wear high boots, gaiters and thick pants when working or walking in grassy or wooded areas.
• Remove piles of brush and leaves well away from walkways and play areas.
