http://Ojatro.com http://Ojatroblog.blogspot.com Coral snakes are extremely venomous, yet very secretive snakes, belonging to the family of elapids, which includes cobras, mambas and kraits. They are most notable for their red, yellow to white, and black colored banding. In some regions, the order of the bands distinguishes between the non-venomous mimics like the milk snakes and the venomous coral snakes, inspiring some folk rhymes — "Red on yellow, kill a fellow; "Red on black, friend of Jack"; and "Red into black, venom lack; red into yellow, kill a fellow." However, this reliably applies only to coral snakes native to North America, which are the eastern or common coral snake, the Texas coral snake and the Arizona coral snake, found in the southern and western United States. But coral snakes found in other parts of the world can have distinctly different patterns, have red bands touching black bands, have only pink and blue banding, or have no banding at all.
