Sssssuper snake!

This is why you don’t kill black snakes/ king snakes. King snakes are constrictors and resistant to copperhead, rattlesnake, and cottonmouth venom, which is precisely why venomous snakes are easy prey for them. They can easily overpower venomous species.

Your property is MUCH safer with these snakes allowed to police it.

Baldwin County has experienced four drownings in 2025, with two occurring in Lake Sinclair and two in the Oconee River. Unfortunately, none of the four victims were wearing a Personal Flotation Device (PFD). We urge everyone enjoying our waterways in Baldwin County to wear a PFD, regardless of swimming proficiency. The Oconee Greenway offers a Life Jacket Loaner station where you can borrow a PFD if you don't have one or forgot yours. Please help prevent further drownings by wearing a PFD.
