Notes

2 Really large females..

First one (the light one and most photod) measured at 21 Inches.
Found under Concrete..

Second one is the picture of the lone snake in the glove.
Found under a large bush stump. (1 foot away from other snake)




This area is supposed to be a wildlife corridor. I am not sure the
work being done in this area is legal or not? There is now no natural corridor leading to the road crossing wildlife corridor.
How are the animals going to cross the MAJOR road if they can't get to the corridor?

The sage Replanting in the area is also bulldozing massive amounts of habitat, in the pre plant stage, that IS NOT necessary, and mowing would do..
