Uhh, Cathy? If you look down you will see Coachwhip's natural hair is very obviously the same color as her wig. Captain America 435

Thought I lost all the pictures of this beauty when my SD card got corrupted. Luckily I found this on my phone. Little sad it was taken after we move him outside the fence.

If it pleases the courtroom, I would remind you all that NONE OF YOU ARE LAWYERS and that playing out this little farce so deathly seriously makes you all look VERY SILLY. Captain America #380

Favorite Photo - Western Coachwhip Snake (Pinkish Orange) AKA Red Racer I had been talking to a few people and they had moved on. I watched one of them jump back and they seemed excited so I went over and saw this Western Coachwhip. It is a colorful snake and I have quite a few photos. It was very curious about me as you can see from all the tongue flicking. Snakes smell with a special organ, called the Jacobson’s organ, on the roof of their mouths. Snakes use their tongues to grab chemicals (which smells are made of) from the environment. Then, the snake touches its tongue to the Jacobson’s organ, which helps the snake’s brain recognize the chemicals as smells. Some facts about this species: A coachwhip is thought to resemble a braided horsewhip, thus giving the snake its common name. The coachwhip species name of flagellum is the diminutive of the Latin word flagrum, meaning “whip or lash”. There are seven different coachwhip subspecies currently recognized. Some think that the coachwhip is the origin of the myth of the “hoop snake” — a snake that takes the tip of its tail in its mouth and then rolls along like a hoop in pursuit of prey. Coachwhips have vision that is better than most other snakes. The coachwhip is the fastest snake in North America, moving up to 4 miles per hour. The longest coachwhip captured was 8 feet long. Coachwhips are non-venomous and do not constrict their prey, rather they swallow it alive. The habit of lifting the upper part of the body to search for prey used by coachwhips is called periscoping. Coachwhips have needle-sharp teeth which produce lacerations when it bites. Coachwhips have an attitude and are not considered to make good pets. Like most snakes, coachwhips continue to increase in size throughout their lifetime. The most common cause of death for a coachwhip is a motor vehicle accident. The home range of an adult coachwhip is approximately 20 acres. #ScenesFromMyWalk #WesternCoachwhip #Snake #Coachwhip #RedRacer #RedRacerSnake #CoachwhipSnake #SnakesOfInstagram #NonPoisonousSnake #Naturalist #PhotoByJeriRae #Herpetology (at Agua Fria, New Mexico) https://www.instagram.com/p/ClCcUgQPtFh/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
