Local news article on garter hibernaculum.

Sorry if this has already been posted. But it was a front page article in today's local paper. Here is the link to the online version.
Couple's dream house at Rexburg was infested with thousands of snakes - Couple's dream house at Rexburg was infested with thousands of snakes:

While I somewhat sympathize with the home owners, couldn't help but think they are a pack of wimps and be a bit mad at them.

Even though that is old news, it is incredibly stupid.

I'm moving to Rexburg

Yes, it is stupid

Hey, isn't this the story that was documented with Dons snakes?

You can probably get a real nice house there for a steal!

Probably, the article said the house was shown on Animal Planet's Infested show.

Probably, the article said the house was shown on Animal Planet's Infested show.

I put these clips together and put them on my youtube channel quite a while ago. Don's website has changed since then but they show it on the show. The filming of live snakes are all his snakes, (wandering garters) filmed at his house. The wild ones (the ones infesting the house are also wanderings) were all brumating when the show was filmed so they used Don's snakes. There was more to the show (spiders and other stuff) but I just took the garter snake parts out and joined them together in one clip.

This one video got more views than all of my other videos put together. Over 83 thousand views. Unfortunately, since it isn't my content, it doesn't qualify for revenue sharing. That sucks.



The part showing Don's website:

yea...thats the same house....this story gets sent to me about once a week by someone I know =) it is the one from animal planet with my snakes =)

[RedSidedSPR]

I just recently watched it for the first time. It was pretty cool. It's kinda stupid how everybody acts like they're dangerous, but it was fun. Especially knowing Dons part in it.

minor correction....was filmed in June...all the local snakes were out and about. was actually filmed in Shelley Idaho at a different home. all snakes in there were my wanderings. they didn't use the real house for it. would have been nice to have them come to my house to film.... =) but it was a fun trip to Idaho for me and Nikki.
