SNAKE DAY
July 16th is National Snake Day ! SVRCS Summer Recreation students spent the day learning about snakes and snake safety . Community member and snake enthusiast Ray Bohartz shared his knowledge and showcased his pet corn snake , Houdini .
Mr . Bohartz talked about the anatomy of snakes and what important roles they play in the ecosystem , by explaining that having snakes around is not only great for the environment , it ' s also directly beneficial to humans . Some of a snake ' s favorite foods are mice and rats , animals that can carry disease and damage property . He also discussed snake safety and some dangerous snakes , such as the rattlesnake , and instructed the children not to approach a snake in the wild , as snakes are not a direct threat and just want to be left alone . The students had an opportunity to pet Houdini , then watch other videos and activities learning more about the snakes in our area .
