VERY. A bite from a Copperhead Rattle Snake can be FATAL. Additionally, most juvenile snakes of any species usually have more concentrated Venom than the adult. So they are potentially deadlier.

Copperhead Snakes are very venomous, however they are widely misunderstood as very dangerous snakes. The bites from them should always be taken seriously and treated medically, however with the right approach copperhead snakes should nearly never snap at you.

Yes. While copperheads will usually prefer to flee or hide than to bite, they are venomous. A bite from a copperhead is rarely fatal with proper medical treatment, but is still extremely painful and may leave lasting injury.

[Hearsay] I personally knew someone who passed as a child, from multiple bites. Generally they are not deadly, but everyone handles bites differently, and they are temperamental snakes. So it's not something to mess around with.

No. Copperheads are closely related to rattlesnakes, both both belonging to the pit viper family, but are different. Copperheads lack a rattle.
