My buddy came back from a fishing trip today with a Blue Racer he planned on keeping. I looked it up and they are indeed rare and on the endangered list for my state. I advised him he should put the damn thing back where he got it which it about an hour and a half away. He said he was just going to release it in the woods because he didn't want to drive back to the lake. My question is it worth it for me to take on the resonsibility of driving the snake back myself because of a friends lazyness or will it be fine let go here or can captured snakes even go on about there same business after being let going after capture? I would think it would mess with the breeding of the snake if it is let go somewhere else. It looks to be about 4 feet long so I would guess it's an older snake and them already being endangered- every snake counts.
