I wonder if the snakes were torpid--just out of hibernation.

They move about but are pretty sluggish then.

My old Oceanography teacher had been bitten so many times as a college student--he raised and collected snakes ( as well as tarantulas) to earn spending money, that he developed a natural immunity.
