    Oh, it's incredible! Not only do I zoo keep, I also teach nature classes for children and work on conservation topics. In fact, right now I'm working with our curator on a Pantherophis vulpina conservation project.

    Pardon the ignorance, but what is vulpina? That would be a type of rat snake, right? Pantherophis are also corn snakes, right? They just changed their name to that from Elaphe. Suppose I could look it up, but I'm too lazy to today. That does sound like a pretty cool job, I've always thought it would be neat to work at a zoo.

    Vulpina is a fox snake, so - like you said - closely related to rat snakes. :]
