Copperhead Racers. This non-venomous species can grow to a length of about 230 centimeters and its body is grayish or yellowish brown with four black stripes on the anterior part. The head is yellowish (fig.) to coppery brown with three black streaks radiating from the eye, of which two extend downward and one backward to the narrow black band over the nape. As is the case with a number of snakes in the same family, its nostrils are located on the side of its snout.
