Talk about core strength ... though snakes are really all core when you think about it. Gray (aka black) rat snakes (Pantherophis spiloides) are excellent climbers, scaling trees to hunt, find shelter, sun themselves, or rest while they digest a meal. As the biggest snakes in Ohio, they are non-venomous and harmless to people. Their primary diet consists of rodents and small mammals, making them a crucial part of the ecosystem by controlling rodent populations. #OhioNature #Wildlife #nature #ohi

This is a grey rat snake (chicken snake) if you’re a farmer you’re very familiar with this species as they love eggs and baby chicks hence the nickname. This is the most common snake encountered so I chose to use it as an ambassador so people have a realistic example when shown how calm reptiles can be. * * * #explore #explorepage #ratsnake #colubrid #gatorboysouth | Donovan Lindo
