hello. Im interested in information regarding the keeping of garter snakes.
I already have one Cal. King snake and I am considering to try my hand with the local garter snakes.
I am from Vancouver, Canada and I am wondering if it is legal to keep wild caught snakes in the area.
Thanks for your help.

Hi and welcome to the forum, Daniel. The care sheet link you were given in earlier replies will help a lot on the needs of Garters. I have heard they are legal to capture and keep in Canada, but I would check local laws to be safe.

My Dad was born and grew up in Vancover. I've never been (yet), but I will one day, as I have dual UK and Canadian citizenship.
