Actually it is that way in herpetoculture. And i hope you continue the tradition so that area don't get raped.

What is the point of telling somebody to go down this road. Stop at the curve. hike 1/4 mile. Crosss the stream and look for a rock that has the "X" on it and lift it and you will find your target species.


The way you learn from the snakes and in in the field is learning habitat, elevation, time of the year, ..basically undestanding and listening to what and why nature has these crature in a given area. It is all in thE feild guide book IF YOU PY ATTENTION TO THE DETAILS.

A lot of good locations have been raped by others who told someone, who told someone ELSE and he tells his friend and in a year or two that spot is completly torn to peices. Not to mention the greed factor,

Heck, the snakes are everywhere. Not just follow this road and take a left. If someone wants to find snakes they should learn how to from the OBVIOUS hints that you can find in a good field guide that was written by old herpetologists who studied snakes and knew 40 years ago what to write and what would happen before the internet was even conceieved.

Now people want direct answers on the internet. LOL!

It is all right there in the old field guides man. listen to the snakes. Listen to the old herpers. Then grasshopper , you may try and snatch the pebble out of my hand. BOIIIING!
