I used to find these little ones all the time under woodpiles and whatnot, about 5 years ago. Now I only find about 3-4 a year...their population is obviously decreasing in my area. How can I stop this, or help the population grow? Would it be possible to take in some eggs and raise them, then release them? Or help breed some wild adults? I hate the idea of catching wild specimens because of the stress placed on them, but I'll do what I have to do to help.
Pictures are one I found this morning, in an abandoned snake burrow.
