In this episode I will discuss the Eastern Garter Snake.
I will also discuss where they are found.
What do these snakes eat?
What eats the Eastern Garter snake itself?
Do they lay eggs or have live birth?
Are they venomous or not? Would you believe that they have a mild venom?
How can you attract them to your garden? I piled up logs and sticks in one corner of the backyard down by the creek and the woods!!
