hehe she's fine. She had a blast, and is excited for finding more snakes in the wild.

On a side note: For those who travel into central and south America, it is of the utmost importance to realize the mimicry of the tropics is on an entirely different level compared to what we see in the united states. The Coral snake : Honduran milk snake mimicry is so well and so perfect that there is no way to know which one you are looking at if you were to flip it under a log. There is a best guess scenario thing - but even that is wrong. The coral snake, is without doubt, the most potent of the venomous serpents in Central America. The man who runs the lodge we stayed at, is the only person in that region that has survived a bite from the Coral Snake.

To distinguish between coral vs Honduran milk, you need to examine the scales located between the eye and nostril. If there are only 2 scales, you have the coral snake (see image above and look carefully). If you have 3 scales, you are looking at an Honduran milk snake :-)
