fourth
book in the Project's series (revised, updated and printed in a
handsome new

Drymarchon
corais couperi, The Eastern Indigo Snake... A Natural History, this

observing some
of this species' last remaining wild, free roaming populations, the
book
includes chapters about description, identification, size, growth,
age, sexual
dimorphism, range, habitat, population densities, daily and seasonal
behavior
including feeding behavior and over wintering, reproduction including
male
combat, courtship, breeding, nesting, intelligence and senses,
threats to the
species and present preservation and conservation efforts. First
published in the
autumn of 2004, this revised and updated life history of North
America's largest
serpent is now in its third printing but may not be available for
long. The
excellent resource is a limited edition printing being offered on a
