Gophersnakes in Central Utah

Saturday, September 6th, 2008

During the early summer I went to Idaho to visit some friends, and took the opportunity to route a ‘herpable’ route back home. I did what I could, and managed to turn up a few Great Basin Gophersnakes (Pituophis catenifer deserticola) along the way.

An antelope running from me:

Banded Rock Rattlesnakes

Wednesday, September 3rd, 2008

Here are a couple more Banded Rock Rattlesnakes (Crotalus lepidus kauberi) found while searching for willardi this year.

Here is an adult male of average size, and probably the prettiest I’ve seen of this species in my limited experience.
