The Royal Saskatchewan Museum is right down the street from Catherine's apartment
Although I did not take a picture of the outside of the building I did take lots of pictures
of it's current inhabitants inside the building...if you are a snake hater you
may wish to skip this section of photos!
I really like snakes. I think they help create a very healthy ecosystem
The following photos are of some of the nine snake species from Saskatchewan
Live exhibit is called Snakes Alive!
Enjoy



Smooth Green Snake
Measures on average 36-51 cm in length is a non venomous snake also called the Grass Snake
Also found in Carberry sand hills. Catherine and I saw one during a hike a number 
of years ago






Northern Red Bellied snake
(I wish I could have seen it's underneath)
Sometimes referred as the Fire Snake
Average adult length of 8 - 16 "







Meet the Bull
Snake
Whose average length can be anywhere from 4 - 7 feet
It's range extends from the Northeastern Mexico to Southwestern Saskatchewan
This too is non venomous, this is a constrictor
In the wild they can live up yo 20 years
