Glad you enjoyed the report.

The first time I herped the mainland, I just couldn't come up with a good reason why some sources said that they only, or mainly, occured at a minimum elevation of 100-300m. I think it is entirely safe to say that they don't like it hot, but geez, what's the difference between 37m and sea-level? It's the forest, not the altitude, IMO. But hey, some genius coined the term Japanese Forest Ratsnake, not Japanese Mountain Ratsnake

One of these days you just need to plan a May trip to northern Kyushu! I'll be your field guide
