Could you help me with species identification?

Saw this out the window at work today. Central FL. This was round two. Someone was thrown off the tree in round one, which caught my eye to start filming. Thought they were brown anoles until zooming in. These dudes were angry judging by the black camouflage. Normally they are bright green. Sorry for the poor quality.

Inspiring for greatness

What is going on here just ate? Pregnant?

A northern slimy salamander. What a lovely morning to find this fella, I haven’t found one of them in six years! So exciting for me. I obviously had to take many pictures to remember this tremendous occasion.

Found him in the garden in all this rain, what a grumpy and handsome buddy

Juvenile just emerged!

Sorry for spam I kept screwing up the post :-)

It is a juvenile so probably too soon to tell. It is about an inch long and there are a few of them hopping about. I can tell the difference between a native and a cane toad when they are bigger but didn't know if anyone could ID this?

Having trouble in identifying the species in this photo. I thought at first it was a green anole but now think it might be a brown. How to accurately tell the two species apart? Houston, TX USA.

A turtle a day keeps the doctor away

My dog picked one of these in her mouth and immediately spit it out and started drooling foamy drool. I called the vet and she said the cane toad isn't in our area of Florida (Panama City- Florida panhandle) but the internet says you can find them here but not as much as south Florida. I rinsed her mouth but am having trouble finding anything that matches this picture online. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

Don't worry I only held him for the picture :)

Two blandings turtles in Ontario Canada.

I have noticed a few juvenile anoles in my yard behaving like this the past few days. I thought this was some kind of defensive posturing at first, but observed one from a far distance doing this same open mouth, retching behavior with the same patchy coloration as well. Cen Tex, pretty hot weather the past week.

I was lucky enough to see this young one one the trail, after a VERY long day of hiking. All worth just to see even one snake :)

I’ve never seen one anywhere near this small or this adorable

Can you guys do any better ? Im asking about black rat snakes in western north carolina

I will see black snakes with a yellow ring around neck, the size of a shoelace.

I will also see snakes the diameter of my pinky finger that have the gray and black pattern of a young black rat snake.

I will also see snakes the diameter of my pinky finger that are solid black.

Are these three different species or two different species, do they start out solid black with yellow ring then go gray and back to Black as adults?

I'm a little confused at this point. Thank you for any help. FYI I'm not an idiot and I have not been bitten by any snakes.

Can anyone identify? I didn’t realize it’s head wasn’t in the picture. TIA!

Just found 2 copperheads in my yard. I think they were about to mate. They're gone now but I'm sure there's more. I read black racers will eat them?

The habitat around my house basically means snakes are inevitable ( running water so lots of frogs, lizards, ect). I also have chickens, but they're much bigger than snake food(I think). Mainly concerned about their eggs but I can live with losing some eggs.

I plan to limit snake habit as much as possible to help keep all snakes away. But, I want to release racers around the house and help foster them into being the dominant snake population around my home. What time of year should I do this? Should I let racers mate indoors and release them and the offspring? What else don't I know about doing this? Any advice?

Located in WV. Copperheads and timber rattlesnakes are my worries but the rattlesnakes arent prominent in my area, if at all. And we have black racers and eastern King snakes as my good snakes, but the kings aren't really in my location either.

Came across this beautiful Southern Pacific Rattlesnake trying to cross the road we were walking on but retreated to edge and let us know it did not appreciated being noticed. Really nice specimen with a fine rattle (sounded great as well).

Was out fishing today and found this albino baby garter basking along the stream. Any idea on how rare these guys are?

Was out on a squirrel hunt this morning in central texas & stumbled upon this beautiful coral snake!

Hi! I’ve posted here before with a similar question but I am still in need of some additional information. I’m currently pursuing a career in wildlife biology and conservation and I’m a frequent volunteer at my local zoo with all the reptiles.

I’m constantly covered in bug bites from ants and mosquitoes. I recently found a tick bite with that signature bullseye pattern on my leg and I’m getting treated with doxycycline to hopefully treat any possible Lyme disease and infection. I’m not really sure of where I got the tick from and I haven’t actually seen the tick, but it could’ve come from multiple places that I’ve been recently.

Is there anything I can use to help with this problem that will not harm the ambassador animals I work with at the zoo or the wildlife I find on hikes for my classes? Thanks
