Two individuals about the same size found basking. After capture for photos they went back to basking without running away for once! See if you can find the two snakes in the photos with all the grass. There are 2 snakes in that picture!

Catchy of the day! This snake eluded capture for three separate visits. The fourth attempt it was captured by my friend and I. Scales a bit beat up here and there, but a feisty, healthy male snake

Young terrestrial phase individual. When handling it got a bit mad and released a small amount of toxins before settling for some photos. Found under medium sized log. Looks like a fat, healthy young individual.

Location isn't precise. This animal WAS found in a garage by an Arcata resident who lives near HSU. Very cold and underweight. If not found and brought for identification this animal would not have survived. Please let it be known there are places to take animals you cannot care for anymore if you have to give them up. Please don't release captive and especially not non-native species. She has since found a home and gotten a first meal back in a warm tank.

Small and appears to have a regrown tail by how stubby the end is.
