Snake ID please !

This was in a friends car in the US a few minutes ago !!
Any thoughts?

I wondered about a Rattlesnake ?
Sadly it’s not a great photohttps://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...5255f8267d.png

Terrible photo! NOT a rattlesnake- look at the pointy tail, there's no rattle. Would help to know what state he's in- many things it could be, but all are harmless, so tell them to chill! :cool:

Sorta thinking Great Plains rat snake, btw. (they're a close cousin to corn snakes) Tell them to check local guide book (online thru Fish & Game for their state- should have pics to help identify). DO NOT HARM IT :snake:

Not a Great Plains then, likely a juvenile Eastern racer. https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/i...4kEjQ&usqp=CAU

Again, it's HARMLESS!

Thank you !!

I told her I had two rat snakes and they were soft and harmless..

Sure looks like a juvenile rat snake.

It could also be that, but pics too blurry to be sure- can only say what it's not (ie. not something to fear & scream about).

Thank you everyone !!
