No snake occurs over a wider range across North America! Learn surprising facts about tiny Ring-necked Snake Diadophis punctuatus and where it ranks among the world's smallest snakes and in North America. The fascinating biology of this snake is presented with up-close video of the snake itself! My channel is always about delivering the highest value, accurate content and teach about nature and the environment. I also compare the Southern Ring-necked snake with the Northern ring-necked snake and how they can be identified. After you watch this video identification of this species of snake will also be confirmed in your mind. It is important to be able to recogonize and identify venomous snakes from non-venomous. This snake actually has tiny rear-facing fangs in the back of its mouth and in conjugation with a slightly toxic saliva that can help paralyze tiny soft bodied prey ...it could tecnically be called a venomous snake but it has no risk to humans.
