Red touch yellow-kill a fellow. Refers to snakes so you ccan teal a real coral from one that looks similar.
King snakes.....red touch yellow kill a fellow.....red touch black friend of Jack
yes coral snakes live in deserts yellow on black your okay jack red on black hope you hit the road jack meaning if you see red on black it deadly if yellow on black it not deadly
Actually you have it backwards. It goes: If red touches yellow you're a dead fellow, if red touches black, you're OK jack.
The coral snake is a fairly small but brightly colored snake with black, yellow, and red bands. It is easily mistaken for the harmless milk snake. The red bands of a coral snake touch the yellow bands while in the milk snake, the red bands touch the black ones. Use this pneumonic: Red touches yellow: you're a dead fellow. Red touches black: you're okay jack.
its to do with snakes,,, if the patern red touch yellow they are usually poisones,, if red touches black , they are usually non poison,,,
"Red and yellow kill a fellow, red and black you'll make it back."That is the most common form of the phrase. Please keep in mind that it only applies to snakes in the United States. If you travel to Mexico, or countries in Central or South America, this rule does NOT apply.Red touches yellow - kill a fellow. Red touches black - venom lack.
Left: black, red, red. Right: red, white, black. Good luck!
Yes... a black hat with a red, white, and blue beaded band
There's no such thing as a "red spade"; spades are always black.
blood set is an okay sign and colors are red' black and sliver
This is a Red-bellied Black Snake. It is very poisonous, so don't attempt to touch it!
There's actually quite a few ways of saying the rhyme, it is tell the difference between the Coral Snake, and the Scarlet King Snake. Here are some variations of the ryhme - #1 Red on yellow will kill a fellow, but red on black is a friend of Jack. #2 Red on yellow kill a fellow, red on black you're alright Jack. #3 If red touches black you're okay Jack, if red touches yellow you're a dead fellow. #4 Red next to black you can pat him on the back, red next to yellow he can kill a fellow. I could go on, and on, but you get the point, if it has red next to black, it's a scarlet kingsnake, which is not venomous, and I know from personal experience are good to have around because they will eat venomous snakes that are smaller than them (problem is they generally only get to about 5 feet). Red on yellow on the other hand is a very venomous snake known as the coral snake, and are obviously no good to have around.
