Fifty-two kinds of snakes can be found in the
Southeast, almost half of all species native to North
America. At the heart of this guide are its heavily
illustrated, fact-filled descritions of each species and
its habitat.Useful information about the interactions of
humans and snakes is also covered: species that are
likely to be found near houses, sankes as pets, what to
do in case of a snake bite, and more. The guide will
promote a better understanding of the habitat needs of,
and environmental challenges to, this fascinating group
of animals.
