Even though it is a good climber it seems to spend most of its time on the ground. Observers of snakes can find this species in almost any rural situation within its range in Ohio. When on the hunt for food an individual typically holds its head up, above the ground, and moves rapidly through undergrowth.
Sometimes, when threatened, the Black Racer will move into bushes or small trees. When annoyed by a person it becomes very aggressive and strikes out at its tormentor. And its bite can be rather painful. A threatened Black Racer often will vibrate its tail rapidly, making a buzzing sound that can be mistaken for a rattlesnake. 
During the winter, Black Racers often hibernate in large numbers and with other kinds of snakes. This typically occurs on rocky hillsides.]]> 2017-06-27 01:27:44 UTC https://padlet.com/nikolas_martin/bycz20blq5f0/wish/177498210 nikolas_martin https://padlet.com/nikolas_martin/bycz20blq5f0/wish/177498614 Well there are many things that w could do to help these reptilians a couple of hard but simple solutions are: Avoid making new roads and clearing land, Avoid persecuting people for killing them and educate the public about why these animals are so dangerously endangered and also we could take them into captivity and study their behaviour and start breeding programs. ]]> 2017-06-27 01:35:12 UTC https://padlet.com/nikolas_martin/bycz20blq5f0/wish/177498614 nikolas_martin https://padlet.com/nikolas_martin/bycz20blq5f0/wish/177499186 Well things that we are doing to help them we have made laws in certain countries or states where if you kill, harm or keep them as pets you will be prosecuted]]> 2017-06-27 01:46:38 UTC https://padlet.com/nikolas_martin/bycz20blq5f0/wish/177499186
