Largest Copperhead Snake On Record Discovered

The results of these findings indicate that most human travelers should be weary not to disturb copperheads if they choose to trek through the region, though there is no significant need to fear the creatures if you cross paths.

Unfortunately, the greatest threat to copperhead species, including the newly recorded largest copperhead, is man-made climate change, which has caused a shift in habitat availability, precipitation levels, and temperature in their home region.

Comprehensive ecosystem studies have been underway by a team of dedicated herpetologists to ensure accelerated growth in the face of adversity.
