False Coral Snake, Falsa Cobra Coral

Wow, Interesting!!

That is interesting about the dog and your daughter. Must be some kind of primitive instinct.

Ooops, I just meant I found more.

I'm surprised your dog is so close to it. @digi sarah, I think that is true. I found a more very similar. "Red on yellow will kill a fellow, but red on black is a friend of Jack." "Red on yellow, deadly fellow; Red on black, venom lack." " Red and yellow will kill you fellow; Red and black is friend Jack." "Red on yellow, kill a fellow. Red on black, you're alright Jack." "Red next to black is a friend of Jack; red next to yellow will kill a fellow." "Red to yellow, kill a fellow. Red to black, venom lack." "If red touches black, you're okay Jack; if red touches yellow, you're a dead fellow." "Red next to black, you can pat him on the back; red next to yellow, he can kill a fellow." "Red next to black, venom I lack; red next to yellow, run away fellow." "Red and black, friend of Jack; red and yellow kill a fellow." "Red touches yellow, Not a nice fellow; if red touches black, good friend of jack." "Red touch yellow, kill a fellow; red touch black, you're okay Jack."

Very pretty snake. A few days ago a gentleman posted a spotting about how his dog killed two cobras one after the other. I felt like asking him ,was there any need to kill the cobra? You could have shooed them away or stayed away from them . But why train your dog to kill the cobra? Nothing to be proud of!!

"Red beside yellow kills a fellow / red beside black, venom lack" Does anyone know if this old folk rule is actually accurate? It seems to be in this case. I am very glad that you saved this beautiful snake.

Sure do, everyday when I go into class I love seeing the look on my classmates faces when they see the pythons, corn snakes, rosy boas, and constrictors in Biology. We also have a snake similar to tis, I'll have to take some pics and identify it. :)

People have histerical reactions concerning snakes.

Very pretty snake!!

@rubens ,thank you for not killing the snake.
