They are very scarce but they are still around. I have seen three this spring. There are still a fair number of moccasins deep in the swamps, but virtually all other so called "common" species such as watersnakes have gone the way of the dinosaur. I have a friend who for years has had a standing offer of $50 for a male garter snake, that's right, garter snake, but no takers thus far despite concerted efforts by teams of experienced herpers. Did anybody check out the link? It is a website for right wing bible beating wackos from Waco. They think it is all about land rights and so do I. Anyone who abuses "their" land or the plants and animals therein (lets add water, rocks, and caves too!) should have their land confiscated by big government and the land set aside in perpetuity as a park. Their cattle should be shot to feed the coyotes, the fences should be torn down, the buildings burned, and their asses should be thrown in jail, or better still their asses should be filled with lead along with the cows. That is the way they do it in Africa, shoot a rhino in a game park and get a few rounds in return. "But but but, I have a god given right to shoot rhinos, my family is hungry, and its a tradition cuz my daddy did it too". Bam! Another boog for the buzzards. I hear tell they like rednecks too. Speaking of shooting, when are they going to run out of either bullets or young men in Mexico? Either one is fine with me. It has been too long since I have been there and want to go back. Since I am in a global climate change challenged bad mood let me remind all of you again to please please pretty please don't simply reply to the list so I won't have to see your list of your ten favorite things about caves repeated a hundred times along with all the other items that have nothing to do with the subject at hand. My personal favorite thing about caving is the hot tub! Cold beer, roaring bonfire, bad jokes, and beautiful naked women. What's not to love? Sleaze--- End Message --- --- Begin Message --- Not sure if I would blame global warming or climate change for all of the indigenous snakes in FL disappearing. >From what I have read, all of the "pet" boas and pythons that folks have bought, and later discarded, are really wreaking havoc down there.
