Snake Help!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Question

Ok I wanted a snake in the worst way..my dad caught a wild snake and brought it home....its brownish black and has a maroon/red stripe down its whole body....any idea what kind of snake it is??? Its also pretty aggressive!!!

Answer 1

they are not that expensive to buy or take care of, and DUH the snake is aggressive because you caught it from the wild and it is not used to human contact.  i don't know what kind of snake is it and it doesn't matter becasue you can't keep it, that is wrong.  just go buy one.

Answer 2

I cant tell you what type of snake it is but a wild snake is not going to make a good pet.  Please let it go.  And Been There Done That.  The only animals protected by the law, that you cant have in captivity are the animals that there is a hunting season on to have them you need a special wildlife permit to weep confined.    

Answer 3

It's prohibited by Federal law to remove a native animal from its natural habitat.

Mad nailed this one.  It's a wild snake, and not used to people.

LET IT GO.  Not only is it against the law to capture it, but it most likely has parasites, etc.

Have your dad put it back where he found it, and buy you a corn snake or ball phyton.

Answer 5

It sounds like either a garter snake or a ribbon snake. Let it go and tell your dad to buy you a corn snake or a ball python, which will make much better pets and are easier to care for.

Answer 6

You will be much happier with a captive bred corn snake. They are inexpensive and easy to care for.

By the way, Been there done that, there is no "federal" law against catching wild animals. You should stop telling people that, it's BS.

Answer 7

it sounds like a garter or ribbon snake,best bet is to let it go back to what it is use to doing, if you decide to keep it make sure you have the right housing for the type of snake. garter snakes like water eat small fish ,bugs ,frogs and worms,no mice. he will stop bitting after he sees he cant get away,they make good pets for starters, but like i said you should put it back to do what it is use to doing.

Answer 8

let it go buy one from the pet store it will no be a good pet it will be very hard to get to eat mice.
