Has anyone else noticed the deecline in Hognose?

unfortunately many species are in decline around the world. its always sad when such a lovable serpent like the hogs are persecuted for the undeserved bad reputation all snakes have... lets just hope that things work out for the fauna and flora of the world......

Well after 3 yrs of searching I finally saw another live one from 8/20/02 through 9/14/02 I have seen 2 neonate Heterodon Platirhinos. I'm hoping to see some adults soon I have never handled a wild adult and I am really looking foward to that day.

The population of Eastern Hognoses are finally picking up around our area! The frogs and toads seem to be thriving around here this year and it is definately a treat.
My husband and I work hard around here as well to help the locals understand the importance of snakes and turtles to our enviroment. We are hoping that this is helping our populations as well.
My aunt seen a Garter last week with an orangish fase to its stripe instead of yellow. We will be hunting over there soon (hopefully before it gets to cool!) to get some pics. This would be an exciting find!
Take care all from Christina
