I was just wondering if any of you have come across a documentary or two on the corn snake in the wild?

The main reason i'm asking is because for one of my animal behaviour assignments, I have to observe behaviours exhibited by both a wild animal and its domestic/captive counterpart, and I think it would be nice to do it on the corn, problem is I just cannot seem to find any good footage of wild corns doing that they do best.

so any suggestions on footage would be really helpful thanks in advance.

I wonder if you could source some footage in the States. There is a guy on RFUK called Habu who would help, but the last I heard of him he wasn't on the forums much. There is a member on the Royal Python Forum called Anatess who's from the States - and possibly more - maybe if you subscribed to both forums and asked if anyone could help, you might find something. Habu is great - I once joked about it being a pity snakes didn't eat slugs - and straight back came some footage of a snake doing just that!

Good luck!

I havn't seen any on corn snakes specifically, but 'Life' narrated by David Attenborough tends to cover some snakey ness, but not tonnes :\

Can I just ask are you doing Animal Behaviour at Uni or something?

Ok thanks guys, much appreciated for the feedback

BATS,i will keep what you said in mind, thank you very much

rachiepotatoe, i am studying Animal Management at college, one of the units includes animal behaviour

this particular assignment has a quick turn around, so unfortunatley i think i am going to have to pick another animal to study, maybe the gorilla or something, one that has alot of documentary evidence :/ then i could observe the captive gorillas at the zoo.

but thanks again guys

Miss piggy I was going to go there!!!
BUT I couldnt get in touch with the right person WHAT SO EVER!
I phoned on numerous occasions to get in touch with the right person, I had been given three different email addresses, neither were right and the addresses wern't even identified!
So I just went to the college on my door step rather than having to move out/travel 2 hours every day

Why aren't you happy with them?

sorry for the extremely late reply you lot.
I have decided to study the Western Lowland Gorilla instead of the corn, more info online, plus i can observe the captives at the zoo for the second part of my assignment

misspiggy,rachiepotatoe - not good the situation you are both in about your college, that sucks
