I personally have a big problem with taking a healthy animal out the wild when it has a suitable habitat. How do you justify taking a WC when CB are available? Certainly look for them and take photos, but take the satisfaction in knowing that that snake has the opportunity to reproduce and make more Easterns!
By the way, keeping a live toad for scenting is the best way!
