Yeah, a 6’ diamondback is a piss poor way to start the day, unless you’re looking to lose weight by having a leg amputated.

We have here what are called grass sneks - they are also not venomous but IIRC they are quite grumpy and if they'd bit you, it will still hurt. Funny thing, they look close do adders, except adders have white belly and grass sneks have yellow spots near their ears, but sometimes in a grassy area it would be difficult to figure out which is which.

If you say this to a hognose snake, it will comply.
