Hi baskinjillyan249, since you put this in the captive animals mission, was this spotted in a zoo? That is information that needs to be put in the notes section if you hope to have this identified. Also, if this isn't a native snake, it needs to be removed from the Snakes of the US Mission. Thanks.
