This particular specimen was found on 4/30/10. A small female found on the steps in my backyard. Found on a surprisingly warm night (in retrospect I wish I could have gone night cruising). The emory rat snake is a fairly common snake in this area and is one of my favorites. The snake surprisingly did not strike nor seem at all agitated when caught which was not really expected seeing as how they often are quite aggressive when messed with. Over all a great snake to have an encounter with.
