Can you not recognize the classic viper shape in an instant?

You can smell a Cottonmouth Water Moccasin. They smell like rotten
meat, so do not move. A brother taught me that. Sure enough, onetime,

was told.

Danny should kill and eat that rattler. Taste like fried chicken, when
fried. Bury the head, venom and fangs way over yonder.
