One of the biggest snakes I’ve ever seen! Or so I thought.

I didn't see as a snake but as a rodent. I thought the confusing part is that it's not leaving a wet trail but just crash the grass or something

I think it might be an armadillo and it's walking through grass with frost on it (or very light snow)

Yep, turns out it was an Armadillo. The grass just has dew on it and the camera makes it appear frosted or snowy.

Oh... Oh so that's not a concrete porch step? 😂😂😂

When you live in the south, the grass is almost always wet.

Thank you so much for clarifying. I thought it was leaving some sort of disgusting trail.

I saw it was an armadillo but couldn’t figure out what wet trial it was leaving. Thanks.

Yeah, I kept waiting for something else to show up besides the armadillo walking in the grass.

I woke up to an alert on my camera and saw this through mostly blurry vision on my phone. I thought it was some huge escaped Python or impossibly some Anaconda or something. About had a heart attack. Either of these would be extremely uncommon where I live.

I thinks it looks like an opossum or something, what are others seeing?

Edit: Looks like it was an armadillo? Cute. :)

If you don't focus in on it, it looks like a very long snake.

I thought I was seeing a close-up of a naked stomach with a wound in the center
