Non Sequitur by Wiley Miller for July 03, 2016
Transcript:
Lucy: So what are we going to do today? Danae: Research. Lucy: Oh...ok. Research for what? Danae: A summer assignment for school. We got to choose our own subject and we have all summer to write a report on it. Lucy: Cool...so what did you choose to write about? Danae: The venomous snakes in Maine. I need to catalogue every one of them, study their habitats, then write a comprehensive report of my observations. Lucy: There aren't any venomous snakes in Maine. Danae: Oh, like that's my fault.

She’s obviously done her research….Genius…BTW, No venomous snakes is an excellent reason to move to Maine….The trouble is, Maine only has water on one side…..In Michigan, its on all sides….N,S,E. and W….I’d miss all that fresh drinking water…..

It’s very rare, but there have been findings of rattle snakes in the western area of the state, Oxford county area.

Well, you’re depending on the timber rattler to actually be gone, but the number of times a species presumed extinct in one location have turned up alive suggests there probably are some.

What about Copperheads ? They’re not in Maine ?When I was a kid roaming the woods and mountains, where I grew up in Connecticut, I don’t recall encountering timber rattlers, but definitely ran across copperheads.

You want poisonous critters? Try Australia. I think everything but the kangaroo is poisonous!
