This past weekend while visiting Brendan and Billi, we saw a snake that we've been looking forward to seeing for years. We found this Coral Snake (Micrurus tener) under a large sheet of bark on an old pine snag near Nacogdoches, TX. Although the neurotoxic venom from this species can be lethal to an adult human, Coral Snakes tend not to be very aggressive, and we were extremely careful while handling this one.
