I have several of those books here in my office for people to look at to help them know one snake from another. I think every resident of KY should get one of these books. It is so bad where I work, that I got a call about a copperhead that was killed, and they wanted me to come an positively identify it. When I got there, it was a garter snake. It is sad when people kill snakes just because they don't know any better.
