The Florida pine snake (Pituophis melanoleucus mugitus) is a non-venomous colubrid snake native to the southeastern United States, particularly found in Florida's longleaf pine forests. It typically has a distinctive pattern of dark brown or black blotches on a lighter background, aiding in its camouflage among the forest floor's leaf litter. This species primarily feeds on small mammals, birds, and their eggs, and is known for its burrowing behavior. Conservation efforts are important for this snake due to habitat loss and fragmentation.
