Hey Jason...

I think it may have something to do with the ringneck's prey itself(like the slug theory). Or maybe certain sub-species of ringneck snakes have evolved into having toxins in the scales to derail predators?? Who knows. No one, to my knowledge, has ever done studies to see what is causing the deaths... Mainly because you would have to risk the lives of coral snakes and kingsnakes. Maybe someone should hang onto a reguritated ringneck... a dead king or coral that consumed it. And have someone perform a necropsy on both. That may or may not give us an idea of what's going on...

But Frank did have a good response until it was deleted.
