Most of the time I see snakes, it's on a nice clear path which they are sunning in.

I've run over a snake twice, (MTBing- came up so fast, in long grass, I couldn't see it in time) and both times stopped to make sure it was ok. Mr. Snake, Mr. Snake, are you ok?? Both times they seemed to be moving ok, no squished areas, normal breathing, very angry...

One time I came upon a snake, in the middle of a clear MTB trail, in the middle of a meal of squirrel. I was worried that he would get run over, so I gently lifted him to a safe area with a stick. He just kept on swallowing.

Did you know, BTW, that snakes only have one functioning lung? The other lung is vestigial and does nothing. Everything in them is all elongated. Weird, huh?
