Nice video we checked all 3 of those since we are actually in the okanagan valley and we wanted to show our kids what kind of snake that live here. thanks a lot
Thanks for watching! Unfortunately we weren't in the range of the Nightsnake, and decided to focus on the 6 species in the northern Okanagan and Thompson-Nicola region. We have caught a few Nightsnakes before (in California). You can see those finds in some of our other videos!
Heck of a detour to find that last one. Oddly enough I never seem to find Valley Garter Snakes in that spot, but I’m not nearly as thorough as you guys are. The place I’ve seen them the most around Kamloops is way up at Lac du Bois so it’s encouraging to see them in the valley bottom. :) Enjoyed the series. Subscribing!
We've found some absolute monster Valley Garters in that area in the past. They can get surprisingly large. Definitely a species that is becoming harder to find in some areas, yet thriving in others.
@@herpingbc last year I found a few very large ones while working around Prince George & Quesnel. Your videos have inspired me to try to find all 6 species this year. I’ve found them all here around Kamloops before, but never in the same year.
Best of luck! Rubber Boas have always been the trickiest of the six to find in the Kamloops area. They only seem to show up at certain times of year. Hope you find them all!
@@herpingbc Well it looks like I got lucky. First snake of the year for me was a rubber boa up on the plateau high above Campbell Creek at the east end of Kamloops. Quite surprised to find one out there. Now I’m really motivated & excited to find all six this season!

Absolutely amazing videos!!
Thank you! We will be making more soon!
Nice video I enjoyed watching people catch the snakes of where I'm from. You guys missed a rare snake called the night snake

@@herpingbc thank you. Only one I saw last year was DOR right at the Tranquille River crossing.
