Downtown's Pershing Square supports mourning doves, Vaux's swifts, gopher snakes and exotic streaktails, a type of fly that feeds on aphids.

She isn’t likely to see many humans out here, only coyotes and gopher snakes and worse.

When it moved, I realized it was actually a 6-foot Pacific gopher snake.

Scattered across it were the remains of prey: disarticulated jackrabbit feet, gopher snakes, red-tailed hawks.

Often confused with gopher snakes, rattlesnakes have wide triangular heads and thin necks.
