    Re: MONSTER garter snakes

    I've never seen any monster garters myself. Although I have heard legends about a garter snake that could turn into a bat and suck blood. I also heard about another one that, if it bit you, you'd turn into a half-human/half-garter snake creature. Then there's that one story about the herpetologist that brought a garter snake to life by sewing together parts from dead garters and hitting it with a car battery.
    People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff.

    It wasn't a battery it was a car charger

    thanks eddie its the best way to measure a snake imo. you just gotta lock the tape measure to like 3 inches and get a photo of the snake next to it. the photo has to be taken from directly over top of the snake too

    Shaun Hayes has 3 huge Lake Chapala males. He said they are about 30 inches. That's two and a half foot!
