Plains Garter in SK

[Vanan]

Found this lil guy while driving along the farm roads of Saskatchewan. Actually Ryan found it. But we all scrammed outta the truck O' Shea style! Our first live snake in SK. The other was a DOR prairie rattler with it's rattle chopped off. :(

But we all scrammed outta the truck O' Shea style! :D i love the anology!!! nice find though. u know i have never caught a garter!!! i have got TONS of water snakes, and rat snakes but no garters.? oh well at least i get something. the only thing i dont like about the water snakes are that they slither off like crazy!!! i like rat snakes better cuz they dont do that. crap i have gone on a rant! sorry, nice snake though!

Ya, nice coral, Jus' like SC said ;)

[Vanan]

Er...I think he was referring it as being coral food and not coral Dozer.

We can't wait to herp more there. There are bullsnakes, prairie rattlers, garters and even hognoses!

i am not a big fan of thamnophis (garter snakes and ribbon snakes) they are too whippy and thier musk is horrible but i even would say that it is a pretty snake
