    Snakes of the Pine Barrens at Bass River State Forest Lecture

    Old Testament man here not that the New Testament contradicts the death penalty.Also it works,there are never any repeat offenders and nohing deters like the likelihood of swinging from a tall tree on a short rope. I would say it should be used for first degree murder,rape and tax evasion. (the...

    Also the head scalation is quite different between racers and rats as well as head shape with a racers head profile looking down on it being much more round while a rat has a semi pointed but blunt nose.

    To me racers look flat black,not shiny because their scales are smooth.Rat snakes scales are keeled which means they have a kink or a ridge down the center and to me they appear to be much shinier like a waxed car.Rat snakes are no where near as fast as racers but they climb much better.Their...
