The Chron has a nice story on the return of the San Francisco garter snake to its eponymous city.  It covers some of the same territory as the press release Coastsider ran earlier, but it’s a lot more fun to read.  The reporter also goes to Mori Point in Pacifica to see some restored habitat, where one endangered species (said snake) dines on another (the California red-legged frog).

Not to mention that the zoo’s Joe Fitting, quoted in the article, and shown in blurry focus behind a snake in one of the pictures (a prominent picture in the print edition), is a Coastsider!
