This is the second Texas Coral Snake I have found at the base of an Oak on my property. This one was in great condition and I found it on my birthday. I did not handle him and let him go about his business, which seemed to be looking for lizards in the holes at the base of the tree.

We had to move this snake because it was in a high traffic area frequented by Fishermen who would rather kill any snake they see than take the time to identify it. To our patrons every snake is either a cottonmouth or a rattlesnake and should be immediately dispatched. We try our best to educate them that not all snakes are venomous and why they should be left alone.
