Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Anyone know what this is?
Hi, 
This little snake was caught in Missouri in July, and I wasn't sure what kind it was... Does anyone here know, or have any ideas? The snake was fairly small (under 8-10 inches) and was caught at night. I'd just be curious to know what this litle guy was... Any input would be appreciated! Thanks!!
PS: In the second pic the snake is in a medium sized deli cup if that helps with size comparison... Sorry for the bad pics...

a little foggy of pic but
a northern red belly snake. secretive and can be nocturnal but lives its life hiding and eating slugs, earth worms and soft bodied insects. never much over 10 inches in length. Can be found state wide but appears to be missing in parts of northern west of the big mo.

it's a worm snake, very common to our area. They're commonly found under anything that they can fit under. They're harmless.
