The blunthead tree snake (Imantodes cenchoa), or fiddle-string snake, is a species of colubrid endemic to Mexico, Central America, and South America.

Blunthead tree snakes are carnivores that forage primarily at night. They feed mostly on small lizards, frogs, and other reptile eggs. They are rear-fanged and mildly venomous, though they are not considered dangerous to humans.

Milk snakes

are often confused with dangerous copperheads or coral snakes; however, milk snakes pose no threat to humans. 24 species are currently recognized with a wide variety of color patterns, though their typical color pattern is alternating bands of red-black-yellow or white-black-red. Red blotches instead of bands are seen in some populations.

The milk snake got its name because people once believed the reptiles sucked milk from cow udders, but these snakes were likely only in barns to feed on rodents.
