🐍 Snakes of the United States

Every snake species in the United States — 180 of them, native species and the established introduced species people actually meet — searchable by common name or Latin name. Tap a card for the full guide: how to identify it, where it lives, what it eats, how it behaves, and a few fun facts. Each card is marked ✅ SAFE & HELPFUL (harmless to people, good for the garden) or ⚠️ NOT SAFE (venomous — look, don’t touch, and never handle a wild snake). Two species have no verified photo yet; those cards say so honestly rather than borrowing another snake’s picture. If a snake bites, seek medical care — that is the only medical advice in this hub.

No snakes match that search and filter — try a shorter word, a Latin name, or the other category.
