What is the queen of the snake?

originating in the United States and Canada, Queen Snake, Regina Septemvittata is a water snake that hibernate during the cold winter months. It is a daily species, which means it is most active during the day when they hunt food. On average, the snake may reach the queen of up to 2 feet (60 cm). The queen snake has an olive brown upper body with a creamy yellow underside. This species is not poisonous and does not pose any danger to people. Shortly after the crayfish plunged a very hard exoskeleton before the new exoskeleton had time to solidify - so the crayfish is still "soft shell" - is the point where the queen snake will eat crayfish. If crayfish are rare, the snake will eat frogs, small fish and invertebrates. Frequently species is located under rocky exits or overhangs along the banks of water formations that contain a lot of food, and can also be seen by heating on rocks or in the middle of vegetation along the shores. Sometimes the snake the queen can be seen over the low -hanging branches above the water, sometimes in a largenumber of number.

Queen Snake hibernation from October to April, during this time it became almost completely inactive and very lethargic. During this time, the snake becomes very vulnerable to predation. The queen of the snake is threatened by large birds such as herons, as well as ripe crayfish. Large crayfish are a special threat to youthful snakes, although the snake is not hibernation. It is relatively common that the juvenile snake Queen is captured by ripe crayfish while hunting.

While still prospering in several areas such as Georgia, Queen Snake population is decliechly in many areas. In areas like Wisconsin, the queen is a snake under the state protection, but is not yet under federal protection. In Canada, this species has extensive protection as a seriously endangered species. In Canada, the queen is protected under the Federal Type Act, the Act on National Parks in Canada and the Act on the Protection of Fish and Wild Animals. By the main threats for teNETO species is a loss of waterways and a localized decrease in the number of crayfish.
