Kind Man Braves Danger to Give Thirsty Rattlesnake a Drink

There is no doubt that some people are braver around wild animals than others. They spend much of their time outdoors learning and coexisting, which helps them learn animal behaviors, so what could be a very dangerous situation for the average person might be a regular day for them. Instagram snake enthusiast Loopy Outside spends a lot of time with the reptiles. He recently posted a video doing something with a rattlesnake most of us wouldn’t even dare consider. “Sharing some water with a huamantlan rattlesnake (Crotalus scutulatus salvini)! This individual was quite thirsty it seemed as the rains hadn’t hit this area yet, so we figured it’d be beneficial to supply him with a little bit of water before we sent him on his way. Such a beautiful species that I hope to see more of in the future!” Loopy wrote.

He slowly pours the water from the bottle into the snake’s mouth, and it laps the liquid up just like a pet kitten or pyuppy would. Loopy’s handling made some people nervous. “Ummmmmm why are you even that close????” Someone asked. Others familiar with snakes shared their own stories. “We see a lot of rattlesnakes in the desert and some always tell us to kill them but we leave them, they rattle to let us know they are there but really just keep to themselves, we admire them and move along,” a comment reads. Some thought that Loopy’s rattlesnake was really cool. Like this person who wrote, “What a lil cutie. you are brave.” This story’s featured image can be found here
