I have often been asked about the role of City Snakes in their local ecosystem. Specifically, people want to know if they have natural predators. The answer is yes.
City Snaked do provide a food source to birds, rodents, reptiles, small mammals, and even other City Snakes.
This week, I received a picture from long time blog supporter and City Snake enthusiast @akgspan. He captured the moment a City Snake in Austin, Texas fell prey to another urban animal species.
Though it saddens me to see a City Snake falling victim to a hungry bird, such is the circle of life.
