| I created this page to
give an insight into the fascinating and interesting
world of the garter snake (Thamnophis). I especially
want to address those of you, who already have some experience
in this field, because the garter snake is no animal that
should be held by beginners. At any rate, a certain experience in dealing with snakes is necessary to successfully take care of a Thamnophis. Here you can find some literature that might be helpfull. On my page I don't want to give lectural descriptions of the garter snake, because there are already multiple other pages with excellent contents about this subject. You can find links to those pages under "links". I rather want to give the visitors of my page an insight into my personal experiences and those are not necessarily identical with the ones in the textbooks. I hope that you enjoy my page. I'd appreciate it if you left either comments or suggestions in my guestbook! Thanks a lot, Daniel |
