RE: MORE & MORE COOL SNAKES

in #animals7 years ago

When my son and I were out the other day checking on our cows, we saw a rubber boa. They are very gentle, and I picked it up to show him. He needed a little convincing to hold it, and I think I gained a little “mom cred” in his eyes, lol!

Sort:  

Wow! Those are so cool! It would be incredible to meet a wild one some day!

They are very neat! We see them periodically around here and I always make sure to let them be, or move them if they’re in danger of getting squished. (I do that for all our local snakes except the poisonous ones — rattlers — and only because I don’t want to get bit myself.) Snakes do a great service for us with the rodent population. The more of them are around the better, IMHO.
