Their patterns are similar, so they can't be readily distinguished from the aggressive (and poisonous) Water Moccasin, except the Northern Water Snake swims completely under water. (The Moccasin swims with head exposed).
Northern Water Snakes can make themselves look angry--and some have grown to four feet long!  |
For some people just to see a snake like this one can be a big problem)))
