Notes

This looks like a Speckled Kingsnake to me, but the new Amphibians and Reptiles of Louisiana says snakes at this location should be Black Kingsnake, so I'm going with that.

Changed the ID to conform with this study, which apparently says...something. https://academic.oup.com/jhered/article/108/3/226/2948264
