Tracking the Elusive Eastern Fox Snake

Kile R. Kucher, a graduate student at Central Michigan University, is deep into his second year of field work and marsh water looking for Eastern fox snakes at Shiawassee National Wildlife Refuge. The species is listed by the state as threatened due to wetlands loss, illegal collecting and indiscriminate killing by people who think fox snakes are venomous. By tracking the snake, the refuge hopes to better protect and integrate the snake into its habitat management program.
