A beautiful Scarlet King Snake the team found the other night.
Please know that Coral Snakes are very venomous and look quite similar. And note, the cute saying is not foolproof, there are Coral snake color morphs that fail the “red touch black, friendly jack, red touch yellow kill a fellow” saying. Handled by trained biologists briefly, who can accurately identify snakes beyond cute sayings, and then promptly put back to where it was found.
