Management plan for the eastern milksnake (Lampropeltis triangulum) in Canada .: En3-5/53-2015E-PDF

The management objective for the Eastern Milksnake is to maintain populations throughout the known range in Canada where it is known to occur and, where possible, fill knowledge gaps on demographics, habitat use and threats to the subspecies found in Canada. There are a number of broad strategies to achieve the management objectives described in section 6.2. Several initiatives have been completed or are currently underway that will aid in the conservation of the Eastern Milksnake. A number of conservation measures to achieve the management objective are proposed. Conservation measures will best be achieved through an integrated approach with recovery initiatives for other snake species-at-risk wherever possible. Negative effects on other species are not expected from conservation activities for Eastern Milksnake, and activities aimed at conserving the Eastern Milksnake in Canada are likely to benefit a number of other species at risk.
