Time to hibernate for Garter Snakes
Garter Snakes usually hibernate in October are now likely underground somewhere trying to stay warm. They may be over-wintering alone or in a hibernaculum with more than a hundred, or more, other snakes and staying there until spring. They will coil themselves into a ball, not eat anything and stay in a state of torpor throughout the winter.
