i dunno about the 1/4mile thing but on releasing a snake one thing to be considered would be water source if a snake is removed from an area that its whole life it went say east for water and is placed in an area where say east there is no water but west there is it will travel east as it is engrained to do so. its an orientation thing same would apply for food source,nesting sites,etc i remove snakes from peoples yards allot here in houston and i allways try to release them in an area where the orietation wont be an issue for the snakes but thats not allways easy either,just some things to consider,,,,,,,thomas davis
