Yellow Black Friend Of Jack

Jan 31, 2019  His rhyme was wrong, he just said 'red and black, friend of jack, red and yellow, kill a fellow' he didn't see the yellow bands and just assumed it was only red and black, nothing about both species having both or one in contact with the other as a character for identification. Red Touch Black - Venom Lack Yellow Touches Red - Soon You'll Be Dead Red Touches Black - Friend of Jack If the snake has a black nose, it's a Coral Snake. That's a good hint. Snake poem to identify dangerous or poisonous snakes - The snake poem is a good way to tell a coral snake from a nonvenomous snake like a milk snake or a scarlet kingsnake. Red touches yellow, kills a fellow. Red touches black, friend of Jack or Red touch yellow, kills a fellow. Red touches black, venom lack. Or Red touch yellow, death says hello. Black touch red, keep your head. Or Yellow touch red, you be dead. Red touch black, eat Cracker Jack. Or Red on yellow and you're a dead fellow.

Lampropeltis triangulum, commonly known as a milk snake or milksnake, is a species of kingsnake; 24 subspecies are currently recognized. Lampropeltis elapsoides, the scarlet kingsnake, was formerly classified as the subspecies L. t. elapsoides, but is now recognized as a distinct species.[1] The subspecies have strikingly different appearances, and many of them have their own common names. Some authorities suggest that this species could be split into several separate species.[1] They are not venomous or otherwise dangerous to humans.[2][3]

Red Yellow Black Friend Of Jack

Geographic range[edit]

They are distributed from southeastern Canada through most of the continental United States to Central America, south to western Ecuador and northern Venezuela in northern South America.[1][4]

Description[edit]

Milk snakes commonly exceed 60 cm (24 in) in total length (including tail), with very large specimens known to reach total lengths of 120 to 132 cm (47 to 52 in).[1][5] They appear to one of the smaller species of the kingsnake genus, as adults in the wild apparently average from 38 to 225 g (1.3 to 7.9 oz) in North America and most typically do not exceed a total length of 90 cm (35 in). However, unusually large milk snakes can become rather bulkier than average-sized adults and potentially weigh up to 750 to 1,400 g (1.65 to 3.09 lb), though high weights as such are generally reported from captivity.[6][7][8] Males typically are larger than females in maturity, although females can be bulkier than males similar in length, as well.[9] Generally more tropical populations, from Mexico and further south, reach larger adult sizes than milk snakes living in the temperate zones.[10] They have smooth and shiny scales and their typical color pattern is alternating bands of red-black-yellow or white-black-red.[1] However, red blotches instead of bands are seen in some populations.[1] Some milk snakes have a striking resemblance to coral snakes, in Batesian mimicry, which likely scares away potential predators. Both milk snakes and coral snakes possess transverse bands of red, black, and yellow. Experts now recognize that common mnemonics that people use to distinguish between the deadly coral snake and the harmless milk snake are not 100% reliable. Some coral snakes do not have the typical banding colors or patterns.[11] Examples of unreliable mnemonics commonly used:

  • 'Red on yellow kills a fellow. Red on black venom lack' or 'Red touches black, it's a friend of Jack. Red touches yellow, it's bad for a fellow.' [12][13]
Juvenile Eastern milk snake
Young milk snake found in central Tennessee that had just eaten a lizard

Due to the many colors of the eastern milk snake (L. t. triangulum), it can resemble the coral snake, corn snake, fox snake, scarlet snake, and most importantly, the venomous snakegeneraAgkistrodon and Sistrurus. Milk, fox, and scarlet snakes are killed because of a resemblance to the venomous pygmy rattlers. Juvenile milk snakes, which are more reddish than adults, are often killed because they are mistaken for copperheads. Enough distinction exists among the five to make the eastern milk snake fairly easy to identify. The eastern milk snakes also have a light-colored, V-shaped or Y-shaped patch on their necks. One subspecies is melanistic (almost all black).[1]

Habitat[edit]

Across the wide range of this species, habitat varies. Typically, milk snakes live in forested regions; however, in some regions, they can be located in open prairies. In various parts across their distribution, milk snakes often live on rocky slopes.[1]

Behavior[edit]

Milk snake activity is mostly nocturnal. They are primarily terrestrial and attempt to blend in with ground litter. When threatened, a Milk snake will usually first try to escape. If cornered or harassed, it may vibrate its tail and strike energetically, though of course they are non-venomous, have only tiny teeth and their tails lack a rattle.

Diet[edit]

Young milk snakes typically eat slugs, insects, crickets, and earthworms.[14]Adult diet frequently includes lizards (especially skinks), and small mammals.[1] Juveniles in the western United States generally feed on small lizards.[6] They are also known to eat birds and their eggs, frogs, fish, and other snakes.[14]

Milk snakes are much more opportunistic eaters than the fox snake or corn snake. They have been known to consume a variety of animals, including rodents, eggs, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates. Nevertheless, the diet of an adult milk snake still primarily consists of rodents.[6] They are nocturnal eaters and are often found during the day in old barns and under wood.

An early myth about milk snakes is that they suck cow udders to get the milk. The myth is entirely false, and is discredited by the fact that the milk snake does not have the physical capabilities to suck milk out of a cow. Milk snakes are, however, frequently found in and around barns, making use of their cool and dark environments, and for the easily accessed populations of rodents to feed on. This proximity to barns, and therefore cows, probably gave rise to the myth.[1]

Reproduction[edit]

Milk snakes are oviparous, laying an average of about 10 eggs per clutch, although that number may vary by region.[1] The milk snake mates from early May[14] to late June. In June and July, the female lays three to 24 eggs beneath logs, boards, rocks, and rotting vegetation.[14] The eggs incubate for about two months, and hatch around August or September.[14] Milk snakes typically live around 12 years, or up to 21 years in captivity.[14] The average hatchling in Virginia measures 20.9 cm (8.2 in) in total length and weighs 4.1 g (0.14 oz).[15]

Conservation status[edit]

Jack

The milk snake is listed as of least concern by the IUCN (a wildlife conservation union),[16] but in some areas, they may face significant pressure due to pet-trade collection.[1] Because of this species' attractiveness in the pet trade, many subspecies are now being bred in captivity for sale.[1]
