Black Snake

Chincoteague, Virginia

When we pulled into the Wildlife Loop parking lot this guy was in the road.
To avoid it getting injured by a car we ushered it to the safety of the trees
and then took photos. It was not too happy with us by this point.

hello. I was in toms cove last weekend and ran across a snake that looked like this in the road. I tried to move him but he tried to strike at me. Do they have fangs? Now I know these arent poisenous I was just wondering if there were any other snakes around there that it could of been? Anyway I didnt take a chance and left him where he was.
