Subject: RE: BS: Reptile question for the Maine-iacs
Now, it's my understanding that Hawaii is the only state without poisonous snakes - although that may no longer be true since some of those brown ones immigrated from Guam.
So, are there poisonous snakes in Maine - Mississauga Rattlesnakes, perhaps? There used to be Timber Rattlesnakes in Maine - but the last one sioghted was in 1901.

Rattlesnake Skipping Song by Dennis Lee

Mississauga rattlesnakes
Eat brown bread.
Mississauga rattlesnakes
Fall down dead.
If you catch a caterpillar
Feed him apple juice;
But if you catch a rattlesnake
Turn him loose!
