A joint snake is a legendary creature of the Southern United States, the myth likely having spread elsewhere. Supposedly, the joint snake can break itself (or be cut) into pieces and will reassemble itself. It is said that if a piece of the snake is taken and the pocket knife used to cut the snake is set down in the place of the snake's piece, the knife will join up with the whole of the snake.

  • Le joint snake est une créature folklorique du sud des États-Unis. Ce serpent est supposé pouvoir se casser ou être coupé en morceaux et se ré-assembler. Ce mythe est probablement basé sur la particularité des orvets qui peuvent régénérer leur queue après qu'elle s'est cassée. De nombreux lézards sont parfois appelés « joint snakes ». Cette croyance pourrait également avoir un lien avec l'Hydre de Lerne de la mythologie grecque. (fr)
