Well to begin a Fox Snake is a really cool snake! :] ( of kourse my opinion)
Anywho..Well I'm guessing that you're questioning why theses snakes are called Fox Snakes?Well...I had the same question, and no they are not called Fox Snakes because they eat fox's they are actually called Fox Snakes because they smell like a Fox's urine to protect themselves from predators. (Neat fact, huh?) They are also smooth like a basketball and you should not pull back from its scales because they become damaged...The rule is head to tail.
