These guys look like a cross between a coelacanth and a worm... and a snake...
Or maybe a slug-go fishing lure. Anyway, for a crazy cool snake that lives underground, these guys are incredible. We actually find quite a few of them down here in the Ozarks, and this one was captured by the eldest son of @bluerthangreen & @allforthegood. Since they dwell underground, these photos were not exactly taken in their "natural habitat," but they should give you a good idea of what this incredible snake looks like. Enjoy the photos.
THE EASTERN WORM SNAKE
As always, I'm @papa-pepper and here's the proof:

This one is small and amzing to be near by.
Nice color too.
Snakes tend to be in your area a lot lately.
Keep on steemin'

Wow, quite a few species in your neck of the woods. We only have a few around here; Gartner Snake, Milk Snake, Green Snake, Water Snake and the only venomous one, the Massasauga Rattler(unfortunately very rare). Like seeing the wild life in other areas. See what I can do this summer to show some of our local surpentes

yeah, we had two rattlers up in Wisconsin, but they were rare too and I never saw any. That Milk Snake sounds nice though, I'd love to see one of those in the wild!

If I find one this summer I'll definitely post. Couldn't believe how small the worm Snake was... See what slithers along this year up here... Snow is finally gone. Spring has sprung or at least it's coming :-).

What is your favorite snake of all time?
Downvoting a post can decrease pending rewards and make it less visible. Common reasons:

Wow.... not sure... Perhaps the Eastern Hognose... right now though, it's the Speckled Kingsnake, although I'm really appreciating the Scarlet Snake that @mama-pepper and the @little-peppers caught me.... but the venomous ones will always have a special place in my heart, like the Pygmy Rattlesnake....
What's yours?

Man I am a novice we don’t have that many different snakes in CA (or at least that i am aware of. Just a few king snakes, gopher and Gardner snakes. And of course a lot of rattlers . Eastern Hognose.... I like the sound of that. Maybe that will be the name of my next (first) band .... Eastern Hognose opening for White Snake!

Be careful with them please!

Did you keep it as a pet?
I honestly don't think I would ever let it go. I've always liked and been mortified by snakes, but this seems like the perfect balance. Like what a Bond villain would get for his kid's birthday 😁
P.S. Your camera is to die for 😅.

Cool! Looks like what we call a slow worm in the UK they can often be found hiding in the compost heaps because of the warmth given off 👍

Ain't this creature dangerous? I mean, does it bite?
Also, is this the size at maturity or is this the baby?
It looks cool though. I'm sure it already has biological name; if not, I would call it "papapeppus reptillius" :D I'm kidding.
Nice photography buddy
