Hognose Snakes

---

The hognose is most known for the upturned snout or rostral scale that helps them dig in sandy soils. Depending on the Genus, they vary greatly from browns and greys to reds, greens, oranges, and black. When threatened, they will flatten their necks and raise their heads like a cobra. One of the things kids love to see is when they play dead which they will do sometimes when they sense danger.
