🚨 #HerpTwitter help! 🚨
This mystery snake was donated to the @MTABiology herp collection but no information came along with it!
Can anyone ID this snake? Would love some help! Please RT.

Just FYI, @BioDivLibrary digitized a BUNCH of natural history illustrations a bit ago and have them all in one place - flickr.com/photos/biodivlibr…
There's amazing, high quality scans of everything from old american apple growing catalogues to deep sea marine fish.
