Yeah, it's pretty easy to find, gopher, rattle, garter, and racer snakes. Spade foots toads are super common but not easy to find and bufo are also present. What part of Roosevelt will you be on?

Not sure that I will be there at all, but my bosses, bosses , boss built a cabin there and asked what kind od snakes he may see (he is freaked out by any snake). I rattled off the usual and wanted him to know the difference between a pituophis and a crote. Any pic's of both? Thanks
