he very possibly set it back free. Some people put every herp they find back even if it's aberrant. It's a lovely snake though, hopefully, that will pop up again somewhere else!!!

I got this reply tonight:


I had let the garter snake go back where I had found it. I kept it a short period of time (after finding it for the 2nd time), fed it a few times, and released it. However, I do know a year or two later Joe Forks ended up finding it. I think they were clearing up the area where I had found it (boards, tin, etc) so he kept it. I'm not sure if he still has it or not though. It was a cool looking snake!

Ummm... Odie? are you feeling OK? you posted that to a thread that's over a year old.:cool:

Maybe that clears up some of the confusion.
