One explanation to this problem - that no none has ever seen a predator avoid a milksnake although it carries colors that should warn predators off - maybe lays inside the first explanation, that there no longer are any coral snakes in the wast majority of the milksnake species total range. If there where coral snakes still in those areas, I'm sure that predators would think twice before attacking a milksnake.
