		Kingsnakes are constrictors and tend to be opportunistic when it comes to their diet; they will eat other snakes (ophiophagy), lizards, rodents, birds, and eggs.
		Some species of kingsnake, such as the Scarlet Kingsnake, have the coloration and patterning which can cause them to be confused with the venomous coral snakes.

		Kingsnake "sheen" comes from their smooth, flat scales – different than the rougher keeled (slightly raised) scales that rattlesnakes and some other local species have.
		Kingsnakes even swallow a snake longer than they are, letting the remains hang out of their mouth while digestion takes its course.

		Most kingsnakes readily eat thawed mice; offering a freshly killed mouse monthly may be done to make certain that the snake is receiving all its vitamins.
		In the wild, male kingsnakes have been observed engaging in combat behavior.5 This assures that the genes of the strongest individual are passed on to future generations.

		Active in early morning and late afternoon when the weather is mild, the common kingsnake becomes nocturnal with the onset of extreme heat in summer.
		The kingsnake, highly tolerant of and perhaps immune to the rattlesnake’s venom, will bite the rattlesnake behind the head; coils of the kingsnake’s body are then thrown around the rattlesnake, constricting it until death results.
		When confronted, the common kingsnake may hiss, strike, and rattle its tail or hide its head in coils of its body, releasing a foul-smelling musk.

	The King of Snakes: Common Kingsnake, Lampropeltis getulus (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)

		Common Kingsnakes are non-venomous and often fail to bite when first encountered, so we didn't hesitate to grab our visitor on the deck to study and photograph it.
		As we reached for the kingsnake, it vibrated its tail rapidly--a common response that reaches perfection among the rattlesnakes.
