Iโ€™m sure theyโ€™ll find one over by Alligator Alcatraz so they can shut that down permanently under the endangered species laws.

That snake is a beauty. I wouldn’t mind having it around the property.

If I remember my science classes correctly, the rainbow snake is harmless to humans but was deadly to unicorns and killed them off to extinction, which resulted in greatly reducing the rainbow snake’s numbers.

Probably killed off by the various invasive species in the state. Iguanas, pythons, monitor lizards. I hate to see people kill snakes. They keep pests under control.

Me and my brother actually saw one about 3 feet long when we were kids. It was Near cross city fl. We were trying to figure out if it was real because it looks fake up close but when it moved toward us we RAN! not taking chances with alien looking things.

That color combination, mainly orange and brown, are so 1970s and outdated. No one wants to be seen in those. No wonder last time it’s seen is in that decade.

The snakes are allegedly attracted to the odors emitted by pubescent teenagers when they try to suppress their sexuality, or repress their desires. If bitten by the snake, its venom blocks their sexual inhibitions and they enter a state of libido frenzy.

Rainbow snakes are rare, because few of them choose to reproduce themselves.
