Elaphe ssp at Queen’s Park

Tucked in a corner of the glasshouses of Queen’s Park, in Glasgow, there’s a room with quite a few vivariums housing a variety of small animals. There are reptiles, fish, amphibians, a couple of land snails, insects and a tarantula. There are also two parrots, and a grey one -Psittacus erithacus- which sadly but funnily sounded like he might have been swearing...

A lot of the creatures were in their hiding spots so I couldn’t take many good pictures, but here above you see two snakes which a sign identified as Elaphe subspecies native to the South Eastern to South Western Unites States. I read they are non-venomous and kill their prey by constriction, aside from looking just beautiful. Obviously they aren’t plants but I thought snake people could know and appreciate them.
