Talk:Coral snake

The section on distribution references a picture that is not there. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.22.121.249 (talk) 07:26, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

um, this is a good article-User:Carsoncocars

look at the copperhead page. It would be nice if articles on snakes all followed that format. Much easier to read.

Personally having articles divided into distinct sections with headings makes them much easier to read (and WP:Guide to writing better articles agrees). Unfortunately for coral snakes, the big list of species makes it kind of ugly. Maybe the list should be last and the extra text below it be moved up for readability? -Dawson 16:40, 6 March 2006 (UTC)

I say move the taxonomy list to a different list and link it. 75.1.248.19 17:45, 14 August 2006 (UTC)

Coral Snake Page Vandalised

Hi, This page has been vandalised. Can someone please correct it. Thanks and regards, David

It seems inexplicable to me but this page seems to be vandalised frequently. Is there some way an admin can protect this page? It looks to me like the vandilism comes from a different IP address each time. I am a different David from the one above.David Eagan 17:08, 24 May 2007 (UTC)

Folk Rhyme

Can anyone confirm that this is incorrect: "and can even have red bands touching yellow bands,"...it should either be stated "and can even have red bands touching BLACK bands," or as is without the 'even,' since the coloration described here does not contrast with the preceeding paragraph. --Elgringo18 00:16, 8 August 2006 (UTC)

I've never heard of the example folk rhyme, and it's an incredibly bad way to remember, since it only talks about "red and yellow" or "red and black" and doesn't correlate them. A better rhyme is "Red touches yellow, you're a dead fellow; red touches black, you're OK, Jack." The problem is that few people can quite remember the correct order of the rhyme ("Is it red touches yellow, you're a good fellow, or is it you're a dead fellow?") -- 12.116.162.162 (talk) 22:17, 19 November 2007 (UTC)

This page should really be edited....Theres not even a section on venom!!!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.105.153.58 (talk) 18:20, 16 December 2010 (UTC) 

Neurotoxin

Is there anyone here that tcan describe how the neurotoxin works. Is it like nerve gas, an acetylcholine stearace inhibitor? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.203.58.1 (talk) 15:22, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

North American focus

I've added {{globalize/North America}} to the article. The article briefly mentions that a dozen old world coral snakes exist, and then never mentions them again except in the taxonomy. GavinZac (talk) 06:32, 21 April 2011 (UTC)
