Jason,

Thanks. The Prairie King was one of several Kings I picked up over the weekend. I recently decided to change the focus of my collection to all native American species of herps. In response to my queries about looking for natives my friend Rob and his brother Chris came through in spades. I received this weekend, the Prairie, a Speckled, a Juno Road locale Gray-banded, and a trio of Arizona Mountain Kings. I also took home a Texas Rat with an amazing amount of red coloration - very nice! Add to that the kings I already own - a Florida, two '05 Easterns, an '05 California (normal black and white banded), and an '05 Mole. All of the sudden my collection went King-heavy. I now have more Kings than any other genus of snake, but hey that's cool with me - kings are fantastic snakes.

Big animals, little animals, plants - right down to the sea itself. We need them, not just for their own sake, but because all this has to be here for everybody forever. Only one thing is certain: if we are to preserve our environment and save this priceless wildlife we need much, much more knowledge.
