We envision a world where ALL are respected and appreciated instead of feared and hated.
To paraphrase our friend the @HumaneGardener our reticence to speak on this comes from feeling that anything we say is obvious and an understatement. 1/
MEET Sara 👋
A few months back, Sara called us in a panic: there was a GIANT snake (Gophersnake!) in her yard and she was worried about her little dogs.
As I tried to calm her fears, I noticed we had a visitor outside too — Harvey, one of our Rattlesnake neighbors!
Won’t you join us?

This Giving Tuesday, our fundraising goal is modest: we want to find homes for all our Serpents of the Rainbow 2024 Calendars TODAY. There are less than 20 left!
Donate to ASP today — any amount — and get a special code for 25% off your calendar.

In just minutes, with a few facts and one pic of a friendly snake encounter, Sara’s fear changed to fascination. That’s the power of knowledge YOU can provide: People like Sara want to coexist with their snake neighbors, but they don’t know how.
While ASP co-founder Jeff rushed outside to photograph Harvey, I explained my distraction to Sara and sent her a photo of how we manage yard snakes.
ALT Sara: "Hello! Thank you for your help this evening!" ASP: "Turns out the Rattlesnake in our yard is Harvey, who we've seen 3 times in the past week. We're so happy to have him." Photo of Jeff filming Harvey the Rattlesnake. Sara: "That's so neat! Hi Harvey! I think he likes the photo op!”
"We had just arrived home from a fall camping trip, and this beautiful yellow variant Eastern Ratsnake was basking right where we park our RV. Posed for us, then released to a safer corner of our yard, near Wilmington NC. Photographed by "Picture The South" @PictureTheSouth
