In Reply to: Orange County Quadrivitatta and a question posted by gila7150 on August 30, 2002 at 19:18:30:
That is a sweet looking snake. I would say that's a textbook example of the central Florida yellow rat snake!
:I was wondering if anyone is aware of any studies regarding the survival success of north american ratsnakes when they need to be moved to another area. I know that most rattlesnakes have a very poor chance of survival if they are not released in very close proximity to the area they are found. I would assume that ratsnakes are more adaptable to new surroundings but I really have no facts to back this up. Since I go on a lot of snake removals involving yellow and red ratsnakes where the habitat is poor due to construction and human encroachment, I would like to know what is a "acceptable distance for relocation".
Sorry, can't answer your question about relocation, :(
But dang that is a nice looking snake... lol.
