Cottonmouth snakes are known for a very special defensive measure. They will coil up, take a defensive posture and open their mouths wide in a threat display to ward off threats. They don’t chase...

But they are very curious. In South Louisiana when I was frog hunting at night, they would swim toward our lights.

More than likely those were water snakes which are insanely curious. If the body is submerged, it’s a water snake, if the body is floating on TOP of the water, it’s a cotton mouth or water moccasin.
