Minerva & I were lucky enough to have seen this eastern massasauga rattlesnakes in the wild (they are listed as an endangered species here in Ohio).

Here are a few pics of one of my favorite local snakes, the black ratsnake (AKA gray ratsnake).
It felt pretty special to find one climbing a tree. 🙂

Here are some pics of northern watersnakes. They are one of the most widely distributed & most abundant snakes in Ohio, & are sometimes misidentified as a venomous water moccasin/cottonmouth - which are NOT found in Ohio.

Here are a few black racers I found in Florida. They’re sleek, fast, & one of the most alert snakes I’ve ever encountered.

One of Ohio’s smaller snakes is the DeKay’s brownsnake. These little snakes mainly eat slugs, snails, & earthworms. They are quite docile, & in my opinion, very cute.

These are few eastern gartersnakes I’ve encountered here in Ohio. They are one of the most variably colored & patterned species in the world, & these four are a small example of their diverse appearance.
