Mature Canebrakes in East Texas probably average 4-1/2' to 5' and have quite a 'girth'.
They are a protected species in Texas.
Friend of mine sent me this pic years ago. Snake was a road kill IIRC.
He wears a size 10D boot...if that helps with scale.
It is illegal to kill or possess a canebrake in Texas (I'm sure there are very limited exceptions).
Spartans ask not...how many, but where!

That is a "GOOD" snake. It will kill approximately 7,000 rats / mice in its lifetime. I don't kill snakes. Not even the ones I have encountered in Thailand such as the King Cobra or Tree Vipers.   Nice to see something besides " if its a snake I kill it..." rationale.
