[edit] Grass Snake

What kind of grass snake is intended here? Clearly not the Smooth Green Snake or the European Grass Snake? Billlion 14:51, 20 Nov 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Regional index for the species list?

I'm afraid I'm not much of a herper (and so wouldn't do this myself), but I think either reorganizing or annotating the species list would make the article much more useful to the reader. SB Johnny 15:54, 28 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Gardens?

"They are an everyday find in gardens."

Is there any reason for this sentence? I've seen many Garter snakes in the wild, but I can't remember ever seeing a Garter snake in a garden. 142.161.78.31 15:58, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Garter snakes are so common in gardens and back yards that they are often known by locals as "garden snakes". --Kaz 18:39, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
