Salvadora hexalepis

Western Patch-nosed Snake (Salvadora hexalepis), Carrizo Plain, SLO Co.

 

This specimen, a rarity in this part of CA, had just been run over by one of the many vehicles that drive way too fast on Soda Lake Rd, which runs the length of Carrizo Plains. It would benefit the wildlife of Carrizo to have speed limit signs installed.
