We use to find them when landscaping in the Kyle Buda San Marcos area all the time...they run from people...One thing I learned was that they have to gnaw on you to inject venom.... that's an myth that they have to gnaw to inject. kid in Blanco can vouch for that No, it's really not. Their fangs are in the back of their mouth. With a snake that small, it's very hard to get bit. About the only place an adult can get bit is the webbing of the hand and other thin areas.

Yes, it is a myth, coral snakes fangs ARE NOT in the back of their mouth. They are in the front, however they are much shorter fangs than a pit viper's and the fangs are not retractible like a pit vipers. I also know someone who was bitten by one, right on top of the hand.

I like snakes but I do not mess with the hot ones, to much chance of getting bit. If you really look at the hot one's they are some of the most beautiful patterned snakes moving.
