Exact statistics on the number of people bitten by water moccasins (also known as cottonmouths) each year are not consistently recorded. However, it is estimated that there are a few hundred venomous snake bites in the United States annually, with water moccasins being a contributing factor, particularly in the southeastern regions where they are commonly found. Most bites occur when people inadvertently step on or provoke the snake. Fortunately, fatalities from these bites are rare due to effective medical treatment.
