I live in Cherokee County and am not sure as to how far the Eastern Cottonmouths range extends. I go to the Allatonna WMA to do some of my herping and would like to know if they are that far North.
The Allatonna WMA is about 45min north of Atlanta.
Thanks,
Brandon

You don't have to go as far as Macon,we find cottons in Oglethorpe and Putnam and Green counties. Up in Allatoona WMA is a little too far north though.You might find some timbers and there should be alot of copperheads up there. Marty

I live in Marietta and you will have to go south of atlanta or to the carolina border or alabama border before you will be able to see one. Go around red top mountian and you might find a copperhead. The only venomous snakes we have are copperheads and timber rattlesnakes. If you are extremly lucky you might find a pigmy rattlesnake. Other than that there is mainly non-venomous. Just go down to clayton county little south of atlanta and you might be lucky to find one.
Good luck
Phillip

Cottonmouths are found below the fall line in georgia. The closest population is along camp creek in Clayton County. That is an isolated population. But to really find them go about an hour or two below butts,jackson county. I know there are some along camp creek because I know a herpetologist that is doing a study on cottonmouths there (Please dont collect from there though because these specimins are being studied.
