This app is a great for people who love herping or even just for the people who run into a snake in their yard. I know all to many people who label all snakes in the area as either a copperhead or cottonmouth and I hope the helps even a little with that. My only suggestions would be to add the scientific names of each snake just to make it a little easier for people who might want to learn about a species of snake they see.

I don’t understand why there is not an easy way to know if a snake is venomous or not. You basically have to read the entire description of a snake to see if it mentions venomous. Sometimes it does not make it clear. There should be a distinctive sign on each snakes page, or picture, to quickly ascertain if it is venomous or not

I really admire and use this app; however, the Davidson College Herpetology website had more photos and if I remember correctly, they were much easier to view. The app shows only portions of the photos and to see the entire photo it must be pulled down and held in order to be viewed. Also, there was more information displayed on the website. If the app had been as good as the website used to be, I would give it seven stars. BTW, the herpes part of Davidson website is nowhere to be found (there was a link to a Facebook page but I won’t go there any more).
