Happy World Snake Day! 🐍

World Snake Day is celebrated annually on July 16th to raise global awareness about the crucial ecological role of snakes and to dispel harmful myths and stereotypes.

Why Snakes Matter:

Snakes play a fundamental role in keeping our ecosystems healthy. As both predators and prey, they help control pest and rodent populations, naturally protecting gardens, agriculture, and public health. Despite their benefits, over 3,500 species worldwide are heavily threatened by habitat loss, climate change, and human conflict.

Ever since we all moved down here to South Florida I've seen two beautiful species of Snakes:

•Ring-necked Snake (Diadophis punctatus)

•North American Racer (Coluber constrictor)
