Bull Snake

It is always important to be on the lookout for snakes at Los Luceros. If you listen with the sound on, you will hear a kind of rattle sound this snake makes, and the patterning sure resembles that of a rattlesnake, but this trickster is actually a bull snake. When agitated, bull snakes will coil up, hiss, strike, and vibrate their tails in the leaves, which sounds similar to a rattlesnake. They also spread their jaws to make their heads resemble rattlesnakes. How sneaky! These snakes are non-venomous and eat mice, squirrels, frogs, birds, and bird eggs. They are excellent diggers and use their pointed snouts to scoop out dirt. Plus, look at how well they camouflage!
