True or False?? The only good snake is
a dead snake.
a dead snake.
FALSE!! Snakes are a valuable resource in our
Eco-System. 95% of the snakes you see are
harmless, and even the venomous snakes will only
bite or strike when provoked. Ask yourself this
would you rather see one or two snakes or LOTS of
mice and rats?

Leave it where you found it. Take some
pictures of it but you should never
remove a wild reptile/amphibian from its
habitat. You will never be able to
duplicate its natural habitat

Call ARRS or send us an email and we can help you
find a home for them.
Captive reptiles/amphibians should never be
introduced into the wild for many reasons:
They may have a disease that could wipe out many
native species.
They may prey on native species and decimate
populations of native species or deplete food
sources.
They most likely would not survive a winter in most
states.
