When you hear the word "cute," snakes are probably the last thing to come to your mind. There's just something so cunning about them that we're unable to look past their slick skin and venomous fangs to see their true beauty.
However, Bored Panda is here to prove to you that these scary animals can actually be charming and adorable too! We've collected some of the cutest pictures, from tiny baby reptiles to grown-up serpents wearing quirky hats, in hopes that this list might just help you conquer your fear of snakes, called ophidiophobia. Though to choose the most adorable ones from more than 3.000 known species of snakes was a hard task, we think we succeeded in our mission.
Keep in mind that snakes can be very dangerous so you should never try handling a wild one, no matter how cute it might look! And though only 600 of the 3.000 are venomous, the choice to touch one might be the first and the last in your life. Snakes are best to be adored from a distance. All warnings aside, scroll down to check the cute snakes!

I love snakes. So cute
HELLLL TO NO, TO THE NO NO NOOWOOW
I'm with you on that one. Kept seeing them all grown up.
most of those were grown up, not all snakes get big.
Snakes aren't that bad. Most snakes don't even want to hurt you. The only reason they would is as a defense mechanism. Have you even touched or held a ball python? They are the sweetest things in the universe. And even if they bite it doesn't hurt.
I’ve only ever held my friends California king snake, had a history of not liking some people, and I was perfectly fine, this thing didn’t even hiss when on my arm, most majestic experience of my life lol
I guess it is your opinion, but still. I hope you change your mind about snakes
what?

A reasarcher put a toy snake and a toy turtle by the side of a road as an experiment... the snake was three times more likely to be hit. I still can't believe people would intentionally hurt these tiny vulnerable noodles... in my area, the most "dangerous" snake is the one that will make your hands smell like garlic for a while if you pick them up. And yet people still treat them horribly. I mean just look at this cuteness! I found this little guy huddled under a plant pot outside in some pretty cold weather, and let him snuggle in my pocket for a while before he warmed up and went on his way
That's soo sad!!
you are a good human :3, and also, poor boop snoots :(
I always loved snakes they r coot
I love snakes, and I respect them. I wish I could have one as a pet, but the thought of having to feed little other animals to it, makes me back out of the idea. Regardless, I would caress any snake I see, if it's safe, of course. Thank you for the post, I loved it!
There is out there a company called reptilinks that make complete food for snakes. They look like, well, little snake sausages, and are actually more complete nutritionally for a snake than feeding it a dead mouse or rat. So yes, snake sausages.
There are many snakes that will happily eat frozen (thawed) rodents - like my corn snakes and Hognose! And really, that's no different from giving your dog beef or chicken dog food.
I don't remember the old computer game snake being so life like! 1450235_10...6db168.jpg
I'm not afraid of snakes. But the words 'cute' and 'snake' just won't combine in my head.
How dare you! Those pictures were adorable!
The rare middle man between "NOOO" and "NOODLE PUPPY:D"
Ah I wish I could have contributed! I have two snakes myself :3 They're lovely animals
This makes me so happy :3 I love lil noodles
I tried! I really did! Some of the little snakes were cute to me, but I feel I’ll always be frightened by snakes.
Appreciate the effort!
Try handling one, preferably a youngling, I was pretty scared of snakes too, and I was dying of anxiety when I had my friends kingsnake on my arm, my fear died instantly, now, I’m not afraid at all of snakes.
I am TERRIFIED of spiders. But I appreciate them and find some species even to be attractive visually. Just because you are scared of or dislike something does not mean it deserves death.
Im glad that this is on here. I feel like alot of people need a different perspective about snakes, to see that they aren't terrible evil creatures. Because they aren't. If you are a snake owner, you'll know what I'm talking about. We need more of this stuff on Bored Panda!

Some of the photos are cute. But 8 can't see the cute in snakes being so afraid the play dead or trying to bite. Handle your animals and animals in general with care and consider their boundaries too.
I admit snakes CAN be cute. But seeing a wild venomous snake on my doormat still scare the poop out of me. No matter how tame or harmless a snake is I don't think I could ever touch one (even though some are pretty darn adorable).
Still not working. Sorry.
so many cute sneks!!! Must pet them all!!
Lots of cutie pies in here ^^ A couple of anger snoots, but lots of bleps.
Still 100% nope ropes and danger noodles.
Yep, still scared :-S
No - still creepy as fuck. And if i met some probably will be all Indiana Jones-Style
I want a snake now
My lovely snek and I enjoyed these adorable pics!
if I ever get a tiny snake, I shall name it Count Cool :D (because vampires and snakes have fangs that can suck blood-I think?)
Sssssssssssssssnake aka danger noodle
I would die for these sneks
someone send this to jhope the i hate snakeu meme creator
loveit
Tots adorbs!!
Nope didn’t work.
I think it's great that we also romanticize snakes to remove the stigma that they're bad animals. All animals just respond on their senses and their environment. You can't blame them to be bad, that's how they are made.
I wanted to see more pictures 😭 I love snakes 🐍 💞
So tiny, never knew that snakes were so colorful and so many are tiny. Love the hats that were made for different snakes!
I’ve never been scared of snakes but my parents won’t let me have one when I wanted one but I had 3 scorpions 🦂
In my opinion bigger snakes are better. So much more to pet ;-;
I have a pet baby snake and her name is Lucy
Actually, Bored Panda, snakes and cute DO go together in my mind! I've been keeping snakes (non-venomous) for almost a decade, and think they're absolutely adorable. I wish more people were educated about them, instead of believing the superstitions and hype about them being "vicious killers." The snakes pictured here are harmless, and don't deserve the hate some folks have towards them... they can also make wonderful pets, believe it or not.
snakes don't belong around a computer, they belong outside in the wild!
BRILLIANT I OWN A CORN SNAKE OF 4 1/2 FT HE SAID CALLED KELVIN HE LOVES HIS CUDDLES AND VERY CUTE XX
Snakes are so bless...
BARF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I ate snake on Okinawa Island.
Aw these are adorable beyond adorable!
I think this made it worse. Snake in a top hat will just have an easier time charming its way past the doorman.
Now I want a pet snake
I see what you guys are trying to do and respect it but It's still a big No from me dawg. Just shivering thinking how big some of them can 😱😱😱
i'm sorry but this did not help i still hate snakes this doesn't change the fact that they are cold blooded vicious venomous demons. I watched snakes on a plane a few days ago still reeling
😂😂
Actually, the majority of snakes (and all in these photos) are non-venomous; and rarely are they "vicious." Maybe educate yourself a little before villifying them? Funny thing is, most of the snakes used in that movie were the MOST harmless and gentle species (like ball pythons and corns). And I doubt they used a single venomous snake.
Bull snakes are aggressive, but even then, they prefer to avoid people
Ahhhhhh that video! Trigger warning plz!
I can't say they are cute, and these noodle snakes def reminds me of this video. https://youtu.be/B3OjfK0t1XM Hell Nope!!!
Still scared, but i think people are better off being scared, there are many snakes that could actually kill us?
Depends on where you live and what kind of snake you see. I live in Canada where most snakes are harmless, so seeing them is just an interesting experience rather than a dangerous one. But if you live in India or Australia... I can see why you'd be very cautious.
You're more likely to be killed by a dog, really - unless maybe you live in Indonesia or central Australia. I think it's more important to educate people about snakes, rather than feed into irrational fears.
Agreed
There are a lot of things that can kill us
