THE WATER MOCCASIN SNAKE: APPEARANCE, BIOLOGY, LIFE CYCLE, HABITAT, DIET, BEHAVIOR
Water moccasin (also known as Agkistrodon piscivorus or Cottonmouth) is a species of the snake kingdom
that is venomous and identical like the normal snake, but it’s different in terms of habitation as they
tend to live in swarms. They are quiet harmful, very poisonous and can pose a death threat once they bite;
but their aggressive nature has been often exaggerated, as this species of snakes do not really often
approach intruders in an aggressive way. They are usually found near the water - particularly in areas
like the lakes, marshes, and the streams. Below is important information about the water moccasin snake.
Appearance
Generally, males water moccasin are larger than the females in size, and the adult snake can have a total
length of up to 90cm. majority of water moccasin snake species are black in color, but the head is totally
different from the body with amazing facial markings. Other color pattern associated with this type of snake
include: yellowish-grey color, brown, as well as tan. Most of the species have white colored belly marked with
dark spots. The head is completely different from the body as it tends to look more attractive with amazing
stripes that are brownish, cream, and tan in color.
Biology
Scientifically, they are known to belong to the reptilian class from the kingdom animalia.
The female species can give birth from up to 16 young litters. In a situation where the weather
is favorable, mating can occur in any of the warmer months and combat behavior between the males
species as a result, has been reported on a number of situations as they compete for access to sexually exposed females.
Behavior
Although water Moccasin has been known to be aggressive but their aggressive nature is often
exaggerated by people. However that does not mean these snakes are not harmful. Generally these
snakes love the habit of snapping their jaws, flattening their body in response of defence when
they see something they didn’t trust. They are often seen active during the day and also at night,
but are mostly found stretched out under the shade on bright sunny day.
Habitat
The cottonmouth are mostly found in areas where there is abundant of water. They tend to live by the
lake, streams, creeks, marshy lands, shores of ponds, swamps, as well other water bodies available in the
environment. They can also be seen swimming in the water, but they tend to adapt more on fresh water.
Diets
They are described as "Omni-carnivorous" and they usually feed on mammals, fish, snakes, turtles,
alligators, amphibians, and birds. However, they mostly eat much of frogs and fish to survive, as
they always usually live by the water.
Lifecycle

in a favorable environment they can stay longer up to 20 years.
