Description

Excerpt from The Turtles, Snakes, Frogs and Other Reptiles and Amphibians of New England and the North Many of the animals mentioned in this book suffer from our prejudices far more than any other class. They are usually little known, but persecuted, feared, hated and ruthlessly destroyed wherever found. Foremost, the snakes: these timid, watchful, silent and most graceful beings are for the most part perfectly harmless. Liven the dangerous ones only use their terrible weapons in self-defence. Turtles and frogs are often regarded as if void of feeling and ruthlessly tortured. Toads and salamanders. Useful insect-destroyers, are truly homely to look at, but hiding under ground or beneath stones seem to try their best not to hurt our feelings.
