I don't much care for snakes, but this photo is still lovely.

Thanks for sharing it!

I used to have a 71/2 foot red tail boa named Kali.
She was a total sweetheart. I loved her big time,used to wear her around my waist she'd tuck her tail in my pocket to hold on and I'd go on walks in the summer with her. she was my heat sink.
She got warmer and I got cooler.

And yeah she was too cute when she drank water too. Her big forked tounge lapping it up .

Here is her picture.I still miss her.

Corn snakes are my favorite. They come in so many beautiful colors and morphs. Like this amelanistic one:

Snakes can drink water barely opening thier mouths. To defang a snake it will kill the snake because they will be unable to eat.

When they got big, I released them into proper habitat, and my friend would sometimes see them when he was out jogging.
