[QUOTE="XIV, post: 91502, member: 735"] I know first hand what it's like to be tagged by a snake, twice. (Copperhead, lower leg. And a tiger snake, upper leg, above knee) Was very sick from the copperhead, and a few days rest The Tiger got me above the gaiters, once again very sick, Lucky for me I had my brother with me, as I was a long way from the car ( fishing ) Most snakes won't hit high, but there are a few that can, (Taipan, Tiger, brown, and the king brown) just to name a few All of the above can be very aggressive and during breading season, will even hunt you down, NO JOKE 95% of snakes will go the other way and only strike in defense but there are some with a bad attitude Sorry to burst you bubble guys but most snakes can bite through denim The copperhead had no trouble with that!
