Publisher's Synopsis
Garter snakes are some of the most commonly encountered snakes in North America, and most people will see one in their backyard or at a local park at some point in their lives. Part of the reason they're so commonly encountered is that they often live in disturbed areas, near human habitation. Given that they thrive in close proximity to humans, it shouldn't come as a surprise that garter snakes also thrive in captivity. But while garter snakes can make rewarding pets, you'll have to learn as much as you can about their biology, their way of life and the habitats from which they hail to ensure your pet will enjoy a high quality of life. Inside, you will find all of the information you need to give a green snake a good home and ensure he enjoys a high quality of life.
