You really expect me to scan 62 pages to make sure it hadn't been posted already?

Where is this?

Looks like a bull but coffee hasn't kicked in and it could also be a gopher snake.

Aren't bull snakes and gopher snakes the same species?

Sort of... the western species (west coast) are usually considered a different species, from what I recall.

The Texas and more central species are considered to be Bull snakes.

They've formed a coalition and are planning their attack. Gonna wait until you let your guard down and then murder your whole family in the dead of night while you sleep.

Or more likely, they're laying low and plotting their next assault. I'd watch out for an obvious snake posing as bait while others flank you like the raptors in Jurassic Park.

So my boys ran up to me yesterday afternoon claiming there was a snake in the living room. I figured they were trying to be funny and talking about one of their toy rubber snakes. Nope, a little Texas brown snake was hanging out by the TV. He was probably attracted by all the snails we've had crawling on our windows in the mornings lately.

Bull snakes are a subspecies of gopher snakes. Gophers as a whole are Pituophis catenifer and bulls are Pituophis catenifer sayi. There are many subspecies of gopher snakes. Taxonomy!

Because it is no threat to you if you are aware of your surroundings
