Every now and then I come across something I have trouble ID:ing. Once again, it's a garter that a local pet store chain has posted on their website.
Any thoughts?

They are not just snakes. They're garter snakes.

It's not an Eastern? Looks like my snakes.

Northern garter
I think it's just a plains garter. I've seen pics of Canadian plains that looked like that. Poor thing is undernourished though.
I'm surprised by that Steve. It may a look a little "off" but it still screams "radix" to me especially if you just look at the lateral and below. There's some pretty weird "off" looking ones found in Canada.

Re: ID this mystery garter
Sorry about that but I'm not familiar with the Canadian radixes. Not seen many at all.
