Hognose snake
The Western Hognose Snake ,Heterodon nasicus,is a rear-fanged snake from the USA. The characteristic of all hognose snakes is their upturned snout, which aids in digging in the soil. Hognose Snakes are considered to be rear-fanged venomous, but are not considered to pose any danger to humans and will only bite as a feeding response, rarely in defense.
