Just hope every one will see had a purpose in this big wide world even if that is a deadly or ugly creature after all God I believe did not make a mistake when he created us all.
Well said. While sitting at an oil change station once I overheard a conversation between two older ladies. It seems one was very pleased with her husband's efforts to kill every rat snake on their property. She was perplexed, however, by the sudden explosion of the rat population on her property.
What a beautiful serpent you probably don't have rats/mice problem with that around! Hope nobody kills it and look at the benefits of having a snake around.
