I thought users of this forum would be interested in this rare find. This is supposedly the first Elaphe davidi to be caught since the forming of the PRC almost 60 years ago! I found it while hiking on the Great Wall looking for snakes (I frequently find Elaphe dione and have found Elaphe anomala as well.)
