Reptiles Search CARE SHEET FOR SNAKES By Paul Hollander pholland@iastate.edu (Freely Distributable) Each snake has various needs that must be met in order to keep it in good health in captivity. The following is an outline of factors that are important to the well-being of your pet. TEMPERATURE: A reptile has the same temperature as its surroundings; it simply moves to a warmer area to heat up and a colder spot to cool down. Most have an "optimum" body temperature that can be maintained within a few degrees and that generally lies between 80 and 88 degrees F. Most tropical species prefer the top half of that range, and most temperate zone snakes like the bottom half. A temperature gradient in the cage lets the snake decide how warm it wants to be. A thermometer can be the herper's best friend because a snake won't eat if it's more than a few degrees below optimum temperature. Snakes have a day-night temperature cycle in the wild. Some studies indicate that if a reptile is constantly held at optimum temperature for weeks, it suffers heat stress. Males also have the sperm killed. It is probably best for a snake to spend the night at a temperature 5 to 20 degrees F below its daytime activity temperature.

Snakes Reviews Related Subjects: Pets More Pages: Snakes Page 1 Book reviews for "Snakes" sorted by average review score: Garter Snakes: Their Natural History and Care in Captivity Published in Hardcover by Blandford Press (May, 1992) Author: Roger Sweeney Amazon base price: Used price: Collectible price: Average review score: Seems uninformed about its own subject matter It's hard to say whether this book merely reflects the state of knowledge about the care of garter snakes in captivity at that time it was published (1992) or whether the author simply didn't know his subject matter. Perhaps a little of both. Like several other authors, Sweeney makes the mistake of associating vitamin B1 deficiencies with frozen fish in fact, only some fish contain the thiaminase enzyme that causes it, and they do so whether they're alive or frozen. But he also makes several other mistakes about certain species. For example, he says that Butler's garter snakes have a wide diet in the wild (no) and are picky feeders in captivity (not in my experience!), and that western ribbon snakes include earthworms in their diet (they don't). Nor is any mention made of the cannibalistic tendencies of the western terrestrial garter snake, an omission that could lead to a big surprise for keepers who house a pair together! There is surprisingly little information here on garter snake care per se; too much space is given to talking about snakes as a whole, or to listing and describing the many different species and subspecies (taxonomy's out of date too). In general, this book is too imprecise to be of much value; don't bother tracking it down even if you are a die-hard garter snake enthusiast.

Information On Snakes In Taiwan Contributed by Jenny Mouat, Nov 2001 click here for info on the world's 10 most deadliest snakes Introduction As a resident of Taipei for the last 5 years I have encountered the occasional snake in my garden, not just in Yangmingshan where I now live but also in Tienmu. Luckily for me these snakes were non venomous, but at the time I didn't know this and I was concerned for the safety of my young children. This encouraged me to do a little research and find out more about the venomous snakes in Taiwan and to learn which are the ones to stay away from! In my search for information I came across a relevant question in a web site about snakes, "If I see a snake how do I know if it can hurt me?". The response was simple - as most snakes are not venomous, the best thing to do is to learn which venomous snakes live in your area and learn what they look like. That has been one of my aims in putting this web page together. In this page you will find the 6 most dangerous snakes of Taiwan and information on what to do if you encounter a snake and information on snake bites and venom. There are 2 additional pages:

The mere sight of a snake or spider strikes terror in the hearts of millions of people. A new study suggests that such fear has been shaped by evolution, stretching back to a time when early mammals had to survive and breed in an environment dominated by reptiles, some of which were deadly.

Pulse of the Planet Journal of Experimental Psychology: General. The research shows that mammals developed the perceptive ability to focus on things seen as threatening, such as snakes and spiders, and to respond emotionally with a feeling of fear.

While there are a vital component of healthy natural systems, few animals elicit stronger reactions or are more feared and misunderstood than snakes. Snakes - General Natural History Snakes play an important role in maintaining the balance and diversity of native species. they are preyed upon by larger species and in turn keep rodent and insect populations in check. Snakes are cold-blooded reptiles. Their movements and activities are effected by temperature. they spend the cool months in hibernation and spend much of the summer under cover or basking in the sun. Snakes are both active and opportunistic feeders, taking advantage of the passing or "discovered" meal. Snakes' habitat, as for all wildlife, is one in which they can find suitable food and shelter. They may seek cover and prey in log piles, rocky outcrops or abandoned burrows. If made available to them, they may also find shelter in basements, trash dumps or attics. How to Discourage and Exclude Snakes from Your Home The following techniques will make your home and premises less attractive and available for snakes.

Snakes Most popular pet snake is the king. Most common pet name for same is Elvis. The western diamondback rattlesnake can inject enough venom in one bite to kill 45 people. Some of the genuine old-time fiddlers put rattlesnake rattles in their violins to keep out insects. Italian violinists of 400 years ago kept toads in their instruments for the same reason. The deadliest snake is the King Cobra. It's big, too...can grow up to 18 feet long. The milk snake absolutely won't drink milk. A white python comes along maybe once in every 1,000 years. The London Zoo paid $14,000 for one back in the '50s. Cleopatra was killed by an Egyptian Cobra, not an asp. No asps lived in Cleopatra's Egypt. A rattlesnake can sense the heat of a human hand about 12 inches away. When two rattlesnakes fight, they never bite each other. Gentleman's agreement? Every year at the Texas Rattlesnake Roundup in Sweetwater, TX, they catch seven to eight tons of rattlesnakes! http://www.geocities.com/kashalinka/ReadingRm/factoids/
