Daniel Parker from Sunshine Serpents will be doing a
Powerpoint presentation on "North American Rat
Snakes - Natural History and Captive Care".
Daniel facilitates educational programs all over Florida
for schools and civic groups. Be sure to learn more
about this most popular of herp species from Daniel. |
The following is a description of this specific presentation from
his website: "With a new emphasis on snakes that make good
display subjects, rat snakes of the species Elaphe obsoleta have
experienced a recent surge in popularity in the specialty pet trade.
This species is one of our long term specialties at Sunshine
Serpents. We have bred all of the subspecies and worked with many
different morphs and localities. Daniel Parker has also caught and
photographed all of the subspecies and many geographic variants in
the wild. In this presentation, we discuss techniques for keeping and
breeding these snakes in captivity. We also discuss the habits and
habitats of wild rat snakes and how to find them. This program
includes powerpoint and runs around one hour. |
