This week we explore a Colubrid species coveted by enthusiasts with a taste for the unique and large species of Rat Snakes, the 100 Flower Rat Snake (Elaphe moellendorffi). From the redhead contrasted upon a typically green body dotted with flower reminiscent patches of pattern, this long and unique species of Rat Snake is considered to be among the elite lesser-known Colubrids. Reaching lengths of up to 8 feet, this snake is listed by the IUCN Red List as “VULNERABLE” with some downward trends in population. However, they do exist in the hobby and captive propagation does occur. This diurnal, large, and active snakes deserve the envy they induce in those fortunate enough to discover them and hopefully, this episode inspires the listener in the same way.
