No problem. I realize snakes creep most people out. Hell I like snakes but get creeped out by spiders, go figure. To answer your question, they did pay a group of guys to go through south Georgia swamps, wearing protective gear of course, and provoke moccasins. They were found not to be as agressive as most people believed. But of course as with any species, not all of them will behave the same. Some of them may very well be mean as shit, but not all. From personal experience, all of them I have ever handled ran away first chance they got. I am sure some of them would have bitten while being handled had I given them the chance.
