Posted by: antelope at Fri Mar 4 00:41:25 2005 [ Email Message ] [ Show All Posts by antelope ] I believe that most snakes in the wild scavenge when the opportunity arises. I have seen it myself with hognoses and garters and ribbons on numerous occasions, and also have seen a coral snake eating a fresh road killed neonate southern plains rat snake, so I would assume a king would but have not seen it myself......yet. I agree that they are powerful and awesome killers but tend to see them as adapting to "our" environment, such as finding them under the trash along our highways. I "thump" my snakes "prey" so as to discourage a dead snake. About half of my constrictors don't even constrict anymore...adapting. | ||
