Post by: HOOK on March 31, 2011, 07:35:06 AM: Awesome pic Jim, i havent seen a mating ball since i was a kid hunting and catching these things all the time as kid. They do bite however and do have teeth that will leave marks, of course they dont bite often though but man they have a stench to them.

Post by: cutthroat22 on March 31, 2011, 08:38:37 AM: Great pic esp # 2. I'm not sure about here in BC but in Manitoba and Ontario the Garter Snakes return to the same spots to mate just like salmon do.
