Answer 2

Venomous snakes come in all colors. The most common is brown. As the others listed, it's red on black, friend of Jack. Red on yellow, kill a fellow. Coral snakes of N. America are the only ones that follow that rule. S. American varieties have red and black and red and yellow so it doesn't work there. As far as bright colors meaning venomous...not true. Cornsnakes, milksnakes and kingsnakes come in a variety of colors...many mimicking the coral snake. None are venomous. The most common venomous snakes you'll find everyday will be the more drab rattlesnakes and cottonmouths. There's little chance you'll ever see, let alone encounter a coral snake in the wild. They are small and very shy.

Answer 3

When I gave seminars to schools & organizations (Boy & Girl Scouts) in Texas and comparing the Coral Snake to the Scarlet King Snake, I would also use"old saying": Red on Yellow, kill a fellow. Red on Black, poison he lack. Usually a bite from a Coral has to be between the fingers or toes. Their mouth is small and they are rear fanged, not like the Rattlesnake, Cottonmouth or Copperhead who are front fanged.

Answer 4

I learned the riddle "Red Touches black is a friend to Jack, red touches yellow can kill a fellow". However this DOES NOT WORK on all snakes. there are many venomous snakes that are not red, yellow or black. or that are all black etc. The saying is designed to help remember the difference between a Coral snake and a harmless milk snake. the safest thing to do is to not touch ANY snake unless a knowledgable adult has identified it as a harmless species. (and even harmless snakes bite)

Answer 5

A poisonous snake comes in different colors, so you'll have to do lots and lots of research the memorize them all.

Answer 6

For the coral snake? The easiest thing to remember is that a coral snake will have a black nose, they're the venomous one..

It varies entirely upon species.

If you are talking about a coral snake vs milk snake "Red on black, ok jack, red on yellow kills a fellow"
