The state of Georgia is known for a lot of things, its peaches, its peanuts, a thriving entertainment scene across the state, and an abundance of wildlife.
Within the many species that call Georgia home are 47 species of snake native to the state.
Just six of the slithery serpents, and some subspecies, are venomous, according to Georgia wildlife officials.
While there are seven species of snake with poisonous fangs across the Peach State, there’s only one area that actually has them all, according to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources.
The Wildlife Resources Division reported that the majority of Georgia’s venomous snakes are spread out across the whole state, with the exception of a small piece of the Georgia Coastal Plain.
So, which species in Georgia are venomous?
If you’re trying to avoid the venomous snakes, the Georgia Department of Natural Resources has a map of where you can find each one.
