Best Answer

"Red touching black is a friend of Jack, red touching yellow can kill a fellow." This refers to the red, black and yellow rings around the coral snake. If the yellow and red rings are touching, you have a coral snake. If the red and black rings are touching, you probably have one of 25 subspecies of the king snakes.
