Re: Garter Snake About to Constrict?
its kinda hard to tell, because the snake stuck from the side to the other side landing over his body which kinda made it look like it was going to.
it happend so quick its hard to see. that is a chipmunk, and one heck of a meal for that garter if he was able to swallow him at all. |

Re: Garter Snake About to Constrict?
Looks like a regular strike to me. In the garter snakes book by Rossman, it does mention that wandering garters have been known to constrict on rare occasions....I have seen 2 of them do it in my collection...

Re: Garter Snake About to Constrict?
It's impossible to say what happens next. Seems a pity that the video ends so abruptly before we can see the outcome.
