    Anyone hear this great story?

    My friend sent me this link. She is not the "snake type" but has grown to almost like them since I have them as my companions. She even babysat them while I was on vacation. That took alot for a "non-snake" person, to stop in and change water dishes, with all my guys slithering around in the tank while she was doing it!

    Anyways, please read and know there are alot of caring people out there:

    Nice to see someone cared.
    That first photo isn't the same snake as the other photo.
    Looks like the rescued snake is a female T.s.parietalis (Red Sided Garter Snake)

    Yeah, maybe that was used as reference or something. Still, happy ending all in all.

    I needed to hear a story like that today

    Yeah, I was looking at that top photo wondering what sort of wire those people were using that was small enough for a snake that little to get caught in it.
