Backyard Spotlight: Orange Striped Ribbonsnake

in #dtube5 years ago


Not all snakes are bad guys! In fact, we only have a couple of snakes that can be considered dangerous here in my neck of the woods.

While cleaning up some debris in the yard, I ran across one of the benevolent snake species that inhabit the area: the orange-striped ribbonsnake (Thamnophis proximus proximus).

Be sure to watch the video to find out how to positively identify this species, where they like to hang out, and what they like to eat.
