This is a copperhead that Stuart found about a week ago.
He was very angry with it and kept throwing it up in the air, even after it was dead.
A few hours later we discovered that he had been bitten by it! His snout was very swollen.
It's hard to tell in these pictures, but he looked like he had a couple golf balls stuffed in his cheeks.
He had a quick recovery....if you had seen him the next morning, you would never have thought that he had been bitten!
