If you are heading to the beach this year, just know that several species of snakes are known to be attracted to the warm sand and sunshine along the coastline of South Texas but unfortunately, the Western or Texas diamondback is native to most parts of our state AND on the dunes and beaches, like the ones at Port A, Padre Island, and Galveston, with these rattlesnakes, boasting as the majority of venomous snakes who call the dunes and flats, 'home.'
I have also seen many posts on my social feeds about Copperheads and Water Moccasins. It appears that snakes are moving a little more than usual this year so be careful when in snake territory this year.
WATCH OUT: These are the deadliest animals in the world
