  • Blue racer snakes have survived for thousands of years, but now they are endangered. The only home left for them in Canada is on Pelee Island. In this video Ryan Wolfe, a master’s student at UofT, shares his passion for the racer and explains how these snakes can benefit humans. But now they are the ones that need our help. If you are a landowner, or just visiting the island there are things you can do to help preserve this species.

      I also live in Michigan & we have them all over west Michigan as well! I had one chase me as a small child with a toad in its mouth! Such beautiful snakes. I hope people leave them alone because they mean no harm to anyone. Such beautiful reptiles.

    Do these snakes really eat Japanese beetles, or is that just on the cartoon?

      There are no poisonous snakes. Some snakes are venomous but not The Blue Racer.
