RE: My Favorite Pet of The High Desert!
Good points and thank you for sharing! I have been bitten by only 1 garter snake in my life, it was a giant one. It scared me more than hurt, although it did draw a tiny bit of blood. The one that I had as a pet for over 10 years never once tried to bite me... he really was a nice snake :)
Garter snakes are mostly docile when they know you don't want to hurt them. They can be aggressive when you first catch them.
Yea that makes sense... when they think you might eat them they fight back! :)
