    I believe that is what they are doing here too. just dropping them off in the neighborhood. Since we are a very quiet street, No street lights at all.

    I have a cat here for over 6 weeks now, living in my garage. I can't keep him, my male cat fights him. Last summer(2007) a black cat I had been feeding, decided to have her litter on my back porch.

    How about this. A small micro-GPS tracking chip. Snake gets lost, get out your hand-held and track them down. I've had this idea for awhile but too many ideas to work on all of them.

    Sadly, they don't make GPS transmitters that small yet. But they did make a cockroach practically remote controlled with a brain implant. In a decade or three, you're going to be able to get the snake to return home, climb into the cage and close the door behind it.

    I have been under the impression people have already been microchipping some of the more expensive and/or dangerous snakes for a while already. Not so much for "lost" animals, but for theft proof, and liabilty reasons. I expect it to be part of permitting processes, if it isnt already.

    I think it would be great to microchip the garters for studying too. Then we could really track where they hibernate, how far they travel, and the whereabouts/survival rate of relocated snakes. I'd love to be able to "follow" a few wild garters as they go about their business all season.
