Fascinating story, it must have been something to watch. I wish that sort of thing happened on my door step.

Cool! Sad that another snake had to be dinner but cool all the same.

Very cool...unless your the smooth green snake ;)

I love it and I hate it. I had a smooth green in my garden all summer a few years ago. They're very cool.

It's nature. Circle of life.

also, a very rare thing to capture on "film" (I'm old)

Eat or be eaten right? Is he a wandering garter like mine?

Most likely. Wandering garter snakes are known to eat other snakes.

That's incredible that they captured it in action in the wild! Awesome :cool:

Good to know :) I'll have something to do with next years non-eater baby corns. This year I sent 4 to another breeder as a freebie, he bought 6 others.
