We envision a world where ALL are respected and appreciated instead of feared and hated. To paraphrase our friend the @HumaneGardener our reticence to speak on this comes from feeling that anything we say is obvious and an understatement. 1/

MEET Sara ๐Ÿ‘‹ A few months back, Sara called us in a panic: there was a GIANT snake (Gophersnake!) in her yard and she was worried about her little dogs. As I tried to calm her fears, I noticed we had a visitor outside too โ€” Harvey, one of our Rattlesnake neighbors!

This Giving Tuesday, our fundraising goal is modest: we want to find homes for all our Serpents of the Rainbow 2024 Calendars TODAY. There are less than 20 left! Donate to ASP today โ€” any amount โ€” and get a special code for 25% off your calendar. snakes.ngo/donate

In just minutes, with a few facts and one pic of a friendly snake encounter, Saraโ€™s fear changed to fascination. Thatโ€™s the power of knowledge YOU can provide: People like Sara want to coexist with their snake neighbors, but they donโ€™t know how.

While ASP co-founder Jeff rushed outside to photograph Harvey, I explained my distraction to Sara and sent her a photo of how we manage yard snakes.

"We had just arrived home from a fall camping trip, and this beautiful yellow variant Eastern Ratsnake was basking right where we park our RV. Posed for us, then released to a safer corner of our yard, near Wilmington NC. Photographed by "Picture The South" @PictureTheSouth

Not the best shot technically but a sight I'm unlikely to see again!! A western whip snake eating an asp viper.
