A Night snake taking
a crack at eating a Banded sand snake.Picture taken at South Mountain Park
Phoenix , Arizona. |
| From the
time I stepped off the plane in Phoenix at the age of 10 , I was ready
to start looking for all of these snakes that I had seen in movies and
books about Arizona. Twentythree years later I have travelled all over
the United States and into Mexico looking for new specimens . Tom Brennan
and myself have tried to capture on film many of these specimens . Although
we know we share an uncommon liking for reptiles in general; we ask that
you look over these pages , learn more about snakes , and give em a chance
to crawl on! Snakes are "indicator species " meaning that their presence
shows for a healthy ecosystem. Without them , the system goes into major
disruption with rodents overeating food sources , spreading disese and
pestilence .Please visit the encounters section to learn more about proper
handling of your next snake encounter. |
