This page is for those looking for more scientific information about Kingsnakes, or those just looking to find out more about their snakes. I don't pretend to understand everything in some of these pages, like some of the equations, but I do feel it's possible to understand most of what each is about with just basic biology. I also included some general snake studies that may be applied to Kingsnakes.
