What is the most poisonous snake in Pennsylvania?
Pennsylvania lists three venomous (not poisonous, since venom is injected and not ingested), the Northern Copperhead, the Timber Rattlesnake and the Eastern Massasauga which is an endangered species.
The Massasauga is the most venomous and the least likely to be observed. Observed is the operative word since snake bites are a very rare occurrence and death resulting from snakebite happen only about 15 times each year in the United States according to the Center for Disease Control. Out of every 500 people who are bitten in the US by a venomous snake 499 will survive.
The US Department of Transportation reports that 'Bambi' collisions result in 130 US motorists dying each year. If you see a snake, remain calm and allow it to make its escape. If you are bitten seek medical treatment.
What spider is black with a little yellow and lives in Pennsylvania?
I see those commonly around where I live. I can't tell you for certain without a picture but I can tell you the most common black spider with yellow on its back and legs (sometimes different patterns) is the Banana Spider. As far as I know I believe it IS poisonous. If you see one then either leave it alone, or kill it from a distance. (I'd prefer something hard like a shovel. I wouldn't even attempt a spider spray because it's likely not to work because of it's size and if it DID work you would PROBABLY be using ALOT of it. Be easier and cheaper just to pulverize it from a distance.
What river in Pennsylvania starts with the letter H?
The Youghiogheny River is a river in West Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania. Other Pennsylvania waterways include York Hollow, a 2.5 mile tributary of West Creek; Yellow Breeches Creek, a 56 mile long tributary of the Susquehanna River; and Yellow Creek, a 20.9-mile long tributary of the Juniata River.
The ruffed grouse (Bonasa umbellus), sometimes called the Partridge, was designated the official state bird of Pennsylvania in 1931.
Other Pennsylvania symbols include:

What is runt in Pennsylvania German?
You probably are inspired by the movie "Witness", a case where a criminal is referred to by Samuel Lapp, the little boy, as "schtumpig".

A more generalized phrase is wicht des Wurfes.

Can you hunt on your own property without a license in Pennsylvania?
felons can hunt in pa with a bow or muzzle loader . for these weapons are not controlled under the same gun laws as shotguns , rifles or handguns. they can also hunt with a shotgun or rifle but they must barrow one. and must return the gun from whom they borrowed it the same day they borrowed it. they aren't allowed to own or keep one at their residence. the only way a felon can't hunt is if they are on probation or parole and were told there aren't allowed to posses any kind of weapon by their parole or probation officer. some felons are also required to sign a document stating they will never posses any weapon ever. but i think that depends on what kind of crime they commited. i.e murder
