Snakes

Eastern Hognose Snake (Heterodon platirhinos) (May 10, 2011)
The Hognose Snake is quite interesting. It will flare its head out like a cobra if threatened and make a loud hissing noise. This Snake may also roll on its back and play dead like in the picture below.

This snake is nocturnal and will not likely be found during the day. The ringneck snake is rear fanged and slightly venomous but due to there non-aggressive nature they pose very little threat to humans .
