Late year hatches, hatchlings have no experience, they disperse, many get preyed upon. Adult snakes have learned to avoid predation by avoiding the moonlight. Just my thoughts on it, I think they remember an attack and learn from it if they survive.

I've noticed that if I do find a snake night cruising with a full moon it is usually a hatchling or yearling. I usually avoid full moon nights unless I have the time and all other conditions are good. I usually will find at least one snake,I figure it could be that special albino,abberrant patterned snake,LOL. I'm curious what everyones experiences are with windy nights,this seems to be the absolute worst time to night cruise and I have yet to find any snakes on a windy night. I think its because they're tongues stick to the sides of they're face,lol. Kevin
