Snakes of the Lowcountry have captured the curiosity and fascination of residents and visitors to this region for hundreds of years. Perhaps the most bewildering of South Carolina’s 39 snake species is the Eastern Copperhead (Agkistrodon contortrix). We will look at many common snakes found in the Lowcountry and will take a close look at the copperhead, the natural history of this snake and our relationship with them.
Jake Zadik has worked as an educator, a naturalist and a biologist in the Lowcountry for close to a decade. Today, he is employed as the staff naturalist for Brays Island Community in Sheldon, SC and also serves as co-chair for the South Carolina Partners in Amphibian and Reptile Conservation (SCPARC), an organization dedicated to fostering the appreciation of South Carolina’s amphibians and reptiles by encouraging conservation through education, outreach and research.
