This was found in an area in Northeast NC near Alligator River, where specimens had been called Coastal Plain Milksnakes. It is sort of a hazy in beteen area between Eastern Milksnake and Scarlet Kingsnake areas. The head and neck markings are not quite like typical Scarlet Kingsnakes. See also belly pattern.

WDBs are surprisingly rare in Kendall County/Boerne. I know of only about 6 specimens in the 5 years I have lived in the area (4 of the 6 came from out on Ranger Creek Road where higher elevated grasslands appear to be better habitat).

Even though the trinomial name "mokasen" is no longer valid, I'm presenting this observation as a "Northern" Copperhead - as it is/was a "classic" example of the subspecies in both appearance and range. This beautiful, 40" male was observed at the extreme Southern terminus of its NJ range in the Watchung Mountains. NJ State Theatened/Undetermined species.

Large adult female killed by road crew after finding it mortally injured at roadside (head and fore body removed by shovel). Apparently this coral snake was previously run over by a car perhaps several days before (Haldea striatula meal was found extruded from its side). Desiccated nature of meal and gut support this theory. Recovered by Jesus Carlos. GTS 3692.

I found a milk snake wrestling with a chipmunk. When I went over to investigate, the chipmunk disappeared into a hole about a foot away, so I believe she was defending his burrow or babies from the milk snake?

This snake struggled but pealed a 1/2 dried up frog off the road capitalizing on a free meal. I’ve witnessed this numerous times but this is a first of a dried up frog embedded into the asphalt. This snake worked so hard to peal it out.
