Northern water snakes are some of the most common water snakes in the United States. The reptiles’ bodies can be varying shades of gray, tan, buff, or brown, and the juvenile snakes are often more brightly colored than the adults. As adults, they have dark bands and are often mistaken for copperheads or cottonmouths, but these snakes are not venomous. However, when agitated they may flatten their bodies and bite. Fully grown water snakes are between 2 and 4.5 feet (0.6 and 1.4 meters) long, with most measuring about 3.5 feet (one meter) long.
