<P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 2em" class=brand-font>Garter snakes
are some of the most beautiful on the planet, with bright
colorful ribbons of blue, red, and black lining their little
bodies. <STRONG>They've also become one of the most threatened
species due to rapid urbanization, habitat destruction, and
climate change</STRONG>, including in the San Francisco Bay
Area. Luckily, the San Francisco airport (SFO) has risen to
the snake's defense. Across from its huge transit hub, SFO has
reserved 180 acres for approximately 1,300 of these gorgeous,
vulnerable snakes to survive and thrive. <STRONG><A
href="https://www.care2.com/go/z/e/A8KT./zx94/b04p6"><FONT
color=#006d7d>We need to keep this momentum
going!</FONT></A></STRONG> </P>
<P style="MARGIN-BOTTOM: 2em">The area, called "Bayshore," is
reserved exclusively for wildlife, with the public banned from
entering. Staff have cultivated the area to meet the snakes'
needs, providing ponds, long grasses, and also protections for
their favorite food, the red-legged frog (also an endangered
species). This type of unofficial refuge is hugely important
for threatened species, and SFO officials have stated that
they are committed to providing a safe home for these snakes
and frogs over time. But so far, that's just based on the
goodness of their hearts. <STRONG><A
href="https://www.care2.com/go/z/e/A8KT./zx94/b04p6"><FONT
color=#006d7d>Let's thank the San Francisco airport for doing
its part to protect threatened species like colorful garter
snakes and red-legged frogs — and also tell it to legally
enshrine this commitment for posterity!</FONT></A></STRONG>
