The snakes already migrated to the North East (i.e. New York, CT, MA, etc). They’re called Liberals, Progressives, Marxists, A.K.A, Democrats.

[Mrs. Don-o]

But maybe Yale will slither north. Just 367 miles to Montreal!

Soon there’ll be alligators and crocodiles in Bangor, Maine eating your lobsters.

We’ve had Michigan Rattlers for longer than the Ojibwe have been saying “mishigamaa”.

When I was in the USAF, I was sent to Canada in winter. Other troops warned me to watch out for the snow snakes.

Joke was on them as I knew what a snow snake was.

A friend in southern Ohio killed a Copperhead that was 39 inches long in his driveway. I asked him where the other one was. Let that sink in.

People who study the actual science of what's going on are leaning in the direction of a little ice age in the next 20 years. The agenda driven "global warming" scammers are so invested in that hoax that they insist on publishing the kind of tripe in this article. The only serious snake issues are from people dumping pets boas and anacondas into places like Florida. Non-native predators dropped into a rich source of food.

You're right. Now the author is probably going to say "see I told you so".

Snakes of Pennsylvania: 21 species

In the political world, the snakes move from north to south.

"Russia is having one of its coldest summers ever. Kinda doesn’t fit the meme, huh?"

Kinda does if the media keeps saying it does.

[CodeToad]

Hitlery did move to new York.

***What? The Northern Copperhead has been in those states forever. ***
And especially think during the Civil War.

As a kid, back in the middle fifties, I was paid good money to shoot and kill rattlesnakes in the blue hills of what is now the peoples republic of Massachusetts.

My dad would drop me off at the Howard Johnsons in the early morning, just me, my .22 and a burlap bag to put the dead snakes in.

One year I got a big one, when I showed it to him he gave ma lesson in economics. He said “Bobby, that big snake kept you from being able to carry out five little ones, you get paid by the snake, not the pound.”

From then on I left many a big snake on the rocks and harvested more little ones.

[Gay State Conservative]

Too late! They've already reached Massachusetts!

[Garth Tater]

"What? The Northern Copperhead has been in those states forever."

Yeah, you'd think they would try to do a better job writing their propaganda, but then again, they're not scientists, they're propagandists and lying is what they do.

[Army Air Corps]

Another danged Hillary Clinton thread!

think=thick!

“The rivers are full of crocodile nasties
and He who made kittens put snakes in the grass.

He’s a lover of life but a player of pawns -—
yes, the King on His sunset lies waiting for dawn
to light up His Jungle
as play is resumed.

The monkeys seem willing to strike up the tune.”

[Eagles6]

Yeah, they’ve always been here in PA,along with timber rattlers but don’t let the truth ruin a good fiction story.

[subterfuge]

What about alligators and crocodiles?

Unfortunately for the author, the erf is entering a period of COOLING.
