kingsnake.com's origins as a web site began in 1994 as a place where gray-banded kingsnake hunters could gather and share their notes, claims, lies, photos, and stories from the field. Now, 18+ years later, it's still a gathering spot for people, many of them those same people, who enjoy chasing reptiles in the field. Here you may post messages or questions pertaining to all aspects and issues regarding field herping, herp studies, research, observations, and conservation in general. If you are a new user to this forum, please take the time to review the rules first before posting: Terms of Service.
