Snakes play vital role in ecosystems, humans’ health

Emma Browning, senior research associate with Texas A&M’s Natural Resources Institute and works with the 78th Civil Engineering Group Natural Resources Program, holds a non-venomous eastern kingsnake June 6, 2023, at Robins Air Force Base, Georgia. The eastern kingsnake was found during a wildlife survey, and a photo voucher was taken to add to Robin AFB’s wildlife inventory. The snake was released shortly after data collection.
