I don't think Scissor's populations are in much danger. It's really hard to flip snakes in the desert due to the soil type and extreme temperatures. Even if you put boards out it would be really hard. That leaves road cruising and walking which you really can't collect enough of them, fast enough to damage the population. But the main thing is that the habitat is not desireable for houses so it's not likely to get developed.



I think the Carlsbad-Oceanside populations are in more danger. Those areas are desireable and have been rapidly turning into housing, shopping and industrial developments. I don't know if the kingsnakes at Camp Pendelton are the same but if they are then the military property would save a great chunk of habitat.
