Fox Snake

Western Fox Snake
Fox Snake by Matthew Ignoffo

The fox snake is the common name given to two species of North American ratsnake. Neither is any threat to humans.

The eastern fox snake is uncommon throughout its restricted range in Ontario, Michigan and Ohio where it is found only near Lakes Huron and Erie. The western fox snake occurs in the open forests, prairies, and farmlands of western Michigan, Wisconsin, Minnesota, Illinois, and Iowa. Their ranges do not overlap.
