Red on yellow is the term that the snake is real and red on black is a snake that looks like a coral snakes.


Do all snakes eat rabbits?

No. Snakes are the predator, rabbits the prey: a rabbit may be able to escape from a snake, but it probably won't be able to kill it (or even try), and it definitely won't eat it. Rabbits are herbivores, vegan, and they can't digest meat. Eating meat can upset their digestive system, leading to serious illness and even death.
