snakes - Page 2

Yeah I would have been very sad if the rattlesnake was indeed a goner, so I was excited to see it making it's way into the grass as I drove close to it. Watching it slither away was the most insane part though, he was sidewinding instead of moving in a straight line. I know that a lot of people have a deep fear for snakes (and reptiles in general) so I'm sure someone would have run him over just to be an asshole.

As for my camera, it's just a sony cybershot (digital). I always keep in on me so that I can be prepared if a photogenic critter happens to come my way.

here are a few snakes that i ran into during my past couple trips to southern utah:

first is a baby rattlesnake that i stepped right over as i was climbing a rocky outcrop.

second is a great basin gopher snake slithering back into his cave carved out of the chinle shale.

third is a california kingsnake (i think) i saw when driving home at night.

theorangejulius, those are beauties. Human-yo, thanks for the childhood memories.

Couple more. One is a detail shot of a cobra under a ledge. The other is a tiny snake. It's got the big head, so it's possible it's a pit viper, but I don't know.

Hey, thanks for fucking up this thread. You want to kill a snake to protect your cat, go ahead, but I really didn't think I needed to specify I didn't want snakes with their heads blown off here.

Lame.

Damn, for real. He's like "I hated killing it so much, I really didn't want to. So I took pics!!"

And just so you know, wannasmoke, there are more out there. You can't kill them all. You can only watch where you step.

Yeah it didn't quite fit in here. Thanks for taking it out.
