Mog Report post Posted August 30, 2024 Ran across this snake while hunting, not quite sure what it is but it was mean. Maybe 6-8" long, any ideas? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NOTAGS Report post Posted August 31, 2024 How mean can an 8” snake be? Lol. As Huntharder posted, plane ol garter snake, harmless. Played with many with my daughter at Blue Ridge. Had tons as “pets” as a kid. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mog Report post Posted August 31, 2024 Thanks, I'm used to garter snakes having a stripe going down their body. When I tried to pick him up he wouldn't stop striking lol, also not used to that from other garter snakes I've messed with. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IA Born Report post Posted August 31, 2024 Its a wandering terrestrial gartersnake (Thamnophis elegans). They're the most common gartersnake around here and the ones I encounter the most in the Flagstaff area. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
