Copperheads Becoming More Common in Late Summer
Homeowners warned as copperheads surge in late summer across the Carolinas. Buddy the 11 month old chi hua hua was bitten twice, and Dawn Hooper reports heavy snake activity as local experts note females with young, breeding males, and deer debris attracting mice.
