All Snake Killers
Click Here
God has made us different,
he made us so unique.
We slither on the ground,
we have no hands and feet.
Though you find us scary,
or maybe just plain weird,
our intentions are not to hurt you
or cause you such great fear.
Our venom's not meant for humans
but to help us when we eat.
So, please stop the senseless killing
before we're all extinct.
We're not saying you have to love us
or tell us we're the best.
God's the one who created us.
So, treat us with respect.

Fears are educated into us
and can, if we wish,
be educated out.
-Karl A. Merringer
A righteous man cares for
the needs of his animal...
Proverbs 12:10
The snake is an animal.
It has a backbone and a heart.
It has red blood.
It drinks water and eats food.
It breathes air and feels fear
just like every other
animal in the world.
And, it's in a body that's
the hardest thing
for the average
person to understand.

Our Copperheads
|
|
|
Southeastern Reptile Rescue currently has six copperheads that inhabit the Snake Shed.
Abraham - Came to us as a result of a 911 call. Apparantly, he was captured by a young man while mowing the lawn and was made into a pet. The snakes owner didn't know it was a venomous snake and actually handled it with his bare hands as he would show his beloved pet to his friends. We later changed Abraham's name to Abrahamette after her second litter of babies.
Penny - Was captured by a homeowner in their garden and was turned over to us. Luckily they used a bucket to catch the snake instead of a hoe!
Camo - was captured as a result of a 911 call. It was hiding in a ladies flower bed. It was almost invisible in the pine straw and leaves.
Copperhead #4 - needs a name.
