For the first time, researchers in Virginia are working to tag eastern kingsnakes with tracking devices to monitor and better understand them.
“It’s one of those snakes that’s fairly common, but we’re trying to get some baseline information on them,” said J.D. Kleopfer, the state’s herpetologist with the Department of Wildlife Resources. Because the snakes are relatively common in Virginia, they often get ignored or overlooked.
“Over time we can tell their growth rates, get an estimate of their population size and see a lot of trends with them over time that way,” he said.
