Florida Banded Water Snakes are very variable in color. Reds do not seem as common as other phases. Field herpers anywhere within the range of Water Snakes of the genus Nerodia, have probably proclaimed on the abundance of these snakes seen on any “good” night of herping. Often, in my area of north central Florida, […]

Brightly colored and beautiful, this Giant Dwarf boa still retains the even brighter tailtip used in luring their prey of anurans and lizards into striking range.

Stiletto snakes lack an enlarged head but are venomous, and have a short, stout, tail tipped with a spiny scale.

When uncovered these 15 to 26 inch long snakes try […]

As well as being hardy, Standing’s Day Geckos tame readily. Seems the best way to describe this Malagasy beauty is to simply call it what it was–the biggest and the best of that diverse genus.
