Adam, one of our aims at Project Noah is Education, & that includes dispelling the myths a lot of people believe about creatures such as snakes. It saddens me when I hear people say "there's no good snake except a dead snake!" which unfortunately I hear a lot here in Tennessee. The majority of snakes in the US at least are non venomous, & the few venomous species are rarely aggressive towards people unless they feel threatened, & even then will often give a dry bite. Snakes carry out an important function of keeping down rodents & many snakes are actually protected by state law! Hopefully as you see & learn more about these amazing creatures you may even start to appreciate them! :)

Just click on my username or picture and it will take you to my profile and from there you can view all my spottings, favorites, etc.
I can't figure out how to search a particular person or snake!
Nice! I love the scale pattern on him! My first spotting when I started project Noah was a big old bull snake. Check it out!
What a pretty little snake!
Lovely spot!
Thanks! I've been on Project Noah for a couple of months, I just haven't added anything yet! I figured it was time to start! :)
nice spotting - welcome to Project Noah!
