Yellowbelly Water Snake
April 19, 2001- Union Co. IL

Most species in the genus Nerodia will readily bite when handled. This species is no exception.
The thing about Yellowbellies is they seem to smell worse than other water snakes. (In my opinion) Therefore, they get
the nickname Smellybelly watersnake.
