Corn Snakes (elaphe Gutta) are a spieces of Rat Snake, which are found wild in Central America and are found down as far as Florida. There are approx a 100 different types of Rat snake in the world and the Corn Snake is probably the most gentle one to have as a pet.

They get their name from that fact that the underside of the snake has a pattern that looks like Indian corn. Not just because they`re found in corn fields as is often stated.
