How To Impress Kevin

April saw this Coachwhip while out biomonitoring on the construction site and knew that Kevin would be disappointed in her if she didn't catch it. So, she braved the nasty temperamental nature of the snake, grabbed it, and survived the multiple bite wounds. It did draw blood. And, yes, Kevin was impressed.




She also wanted to show it to our Homeschool Co-op Group which is currently studying Desert Ecology. We won't keep it for too long, as Coachwhips don't make good pets. They like to move fast and don't appreciate the confinement of a cage.
