Humans do this the first weekend of summer vacation at the lake/river.
i kinda wanna know what lakes you go to now
I’ve been in one of these before it’s nice.
Ok so why are you taking photos and not joining in on the fun?
NOPE
nope rope
norgy
I wish people were mating like this. Not that I want to, just it would be hilarious
Thanks, I hate it
I mean yeah it’s a giant snake ball but the worst thing a garter can do to you is stink on you as a means of self defense 😄 They’re tiny and goofy and among the few potential pet snakes that can be kept without being fed vertebrates.
They do bite. It doesn’t really hurt but it’s shocking when it happens.
Their saliva is mildly toxic so if you’re unlucky enough to be allergic you could get an annoying rash from a bite.
Maybe 10k of them slobbering all of you might not be good then
I had one draw blood this spring! Granted, it was barely anything, but it still blew my mind it was capable of doing that.
Jeez how did it happen? Must have felt trapped or something
Picked it up like I usually do. This one was particularly feisty, striking at everything. Got me just right I guess.
Well garden spiders also don’t pose any harm, but I don’t fancy getting into a giant ball of them
This hit my nope reflex hard and now I understand the dislike of nope ropes
Why not?
They might realise the power of teamwork and together bind me in webs and communally devour me. Now they have a taste for human, are organised and each pregnant with 1500 spiderlings.
That’s kinda hot.
I now realise my comment could be interpreted as some kind of spider-furry fanfic, but I assure you I will not be impregnating any spiders under any circumstances.
That’s fair enough
I didnt know Canada was Australia. I always thought Canada was too cold for this shit.
Garter snakes are harmless, they run from you and don’t bite.
Even if they did bite it would still be harmless, tiny teeth, low bite force, no venom, would hardly hurt if it managed to hurt at all.
I’m going to have nightmares about this.
Good thing the dont have feet, can you imagine the time lost while all the Canadian snakes had to appologize to each other?
Snake orgy… you learn something new everyday…
Snorgy

SchlangenorgieOh god… it even has a name and happens a LOT…
I was perfectly okay not knowing about this
And now you’re even better!
I could finally find out how chewing 5 gum supposedly feels
Sexy time. I like.
I saw a documentary about this on the archive presented by a talented young female researcher. Fascinating stuff.
NSFW link to Pornhub ^
Did someone tell the snakes Kevin O’Leary was around?
Fuck all of this. I hate snakes more than Indiana Jones does. Last week I was taking laundry down to the basement and stepped directly onto a garter snake. Horrifying.
The snake was probably horrified as well. At least it was a garter and not a rattler or mamba.
Poor snake
