    Talking Found an EPIC garter snake (pics included!)

    This was last April, I let her go right away. We were walking our dogs around a hiking trail (me and a random group of people) and came across this snake in the middle of the trail. I moved her because some people were scared, and I was afraid that one of the dogs would hurt her (just calling her a she, no idea what sex it was) but I snapped a few pictures I have more pictures on my phone but I have to run for now...

    Nice find! That is definitely a beast of a garter snake. I've never seen one that big where I live.

    That's a nice size garter and yeah looks like you're about to get bit, and if you do get bit don't go to the ER because...

    The doctors will measure the 1 inch bite marks call experts for results and then it will be confirmed it was indeed a 10ft python.

    Definitely a nice size garter snake, nice find!

    I found one last year sometime and it was docile as anything I own. It let me pick it up and didn't attempt to run or bite or anything. I even rubbed under its head.

    Thank you guys so much! She did in fact try to bite me, and I don't blame her! She's probably the top snake where she lives I will get the other pictures off my phone soon, they show off her size even better

    LMAO about the 10 ft snake... I read that article, I face-palmed so hard that I almost broke my nose *shakes head*
    This snake was in Upstate NY I have never seen one even close to her size, it was breathtaking
