According to the websites, ground snakes grow to 15 inches (38cm). So, what is it?
Thanks to Jozien (of the Yukon) and her use of iNaturalist, the snake was identified on 3, Dec, as a Coachwhip. (I was sure it was a bushmaster.)
Near Tubac, Arizona
Just over three feet, I guess (92cm)
No snakes, please.
