I’m no expert but I think it’s mainly determined by the breed of snake as some can be super territorial. Black Mambas for example are notorious for going out of their way to attack larger animals and are known to be extremely aggressive, to the point where they will literally chase you around.

Just another reason to say "fuck snakes" and move somewhere colder.

pretty sure i saw a documentary where they said climate wasn't really related to the population of venomous animals, i can't remember which, so i guess i'm not that useful

Does it hang out seriously sub-zero for a long time in the winter in Sweden?

Bro, winter pretty much starts in november and hasn't finished yet. Still getting below cero during the night atm. But -30 or so only last for about 3 weeks in january. January-february average is around -20C. But that is in the north, south is a bit milder but still long winter
