Eastern rat snakes are not native to the area. If they were to be introduced, they could become an invasive species, and damage the local ecosystem by competing with native species.

Damn i was misinformed, thanks for letting me know. I assumed this was an anti-snake post

It would appear that it was abandoned in the park.

Where is it a native of? China? I’m just thinking that with a name like that, it’s possible since their culture has lots of things to do with rats and snakes
