Field Notes

Description:

About 4 feet long, orange/red with a darker rectangle pattern down the length of the snake.

Habitat:

Mixed forest.

Notes:

This was the crankiest corn snake I've ever encountered. Normally they are docile and can be picked up right in the wild, but this one was having none of it. It was right in the middle of the road and struck at me three different times just as I was trying to get a picture.
