	Idaho Public Television's Idaho, A Portrait - The Snake River
		Snake River was named for the people who once lived in the high desert surrounding it.
		Today, an affectionate name for the Snake River, the longest river in Idaho at 1,056 miles, is the "mighty Snake." The river gives life to a remarkable string of cities and towns that hang on the river like beads on a string.
		Despite all of its work, the river manages to be other things at different places--a vacation paradise for anglers; a habitat for fish from trout to catfish to sturgeon; a canyon home for the largest gathering of nesting owls, hawks, eagles, and falcons on the continent; and a federally-designated "wild and scenic" river.

		Snake skins are not acceptable as proof a giant snake size because they are easily stretched to at least twice of its actual length (Murphy 1997).
		Already aware that snake skins were susceptible to stretching, William was extremely careful as he skinned the snake in order that stretching be kept to a minimum.
		Most female snakes try to avoid the male at first, the male will often wind his tail around the female so that he may secure himself on top of her and bring their cloacal regions close together.

	Snake River Farms
		Snake River's cattle are fed a 'slow- grow' ration of barley, wheat and alfalfa.
		Snake River builds on those natural characteristics by having its patties shipped from its Washington state plant to San Diego, where Jensen Meats grinds and forms the ground beef, using a modified and patented former-one of only two in the nation-that fills the mold by injecting product from the side rather than the top.
		Snake River's parent company is Boise-based Agri Beef Co., the nation's eighth- largest feedlot operator.

		Flowing gently in front of the majestic Tetons, the Snake River is both the major fishery of the Jackson Hole area and also an important source of recreation.

	Eastern Snake River Plain
		The section focuses on the eastern Snake River Plain because of the intensive water use in the area and the significant surface and ground water interaction.
		In the Snake River Plain aquifer, the entire volume of water pumped and consumptively used will either be depleted from spring discharge, cause a corresponding increase in river losses, or cause a corresponding decrease in river gains.
		The models of the Snake River Plain aquifer described above have been used for many years and presently are accepted to represent the effects that consumptive ground water pumping and managed recharge have on ground water storage and on interactions between the river and the aquifer.

		The first permanent fur trading establishment was Fort Henry, built by the Missouri Fur Company on the North Fork of the Snake River in the fall of 1810.
		The furs of the Snake River country were never taken in quantity again, and it seems that the Hudson's Bay Company viewed the Columbia River and Snake RIver drainages of the Pacific Northwest largely as a buffer against Russian and American expansion.
		It was the expressed interest of the company to extract furs as quickly as possible, and that the resources of the Snake country which probably could not be kept by the HBC should not be conserved.

	eMedicine - Snake Envenomations, Sea : Article by James Foster, MD, MS
		Sea snakes are found predominantly in tropical and subtropical waters in the western Pacific and Indian Oceans, often in protected coastal waters and near river mouths.
		History: The diagnosis of sea snake envenomation requires the establishment of the potential for exposure to a sea snake (eg, exposure to water in an area known to harbor sea snakes), identification of symptoms of envenomation, and demonstration of evidence of a bite (eg, multiple puncture wounds or reliable history of observed bite).
		Because of the relatively small size of sea snake fangs and the relative lack of local irritation, the diagnosis of envenomation may be inadvertently missed or patients may be prematurely discharged before serious symptoms occur.
