Add a snake guide to your website
A free box that lists the snakes recorded in any U.S. county or state and any Canadian province, with the venomous species first, their photos, and what to do if someone is bitten. Pick a place, copy two lines of code, and paste them into your page.
Who it is for
Newsrooms
Running a spring snake season story or a bite report? Drop in the box for your county so readers can see which snakes actually live nearby.
Parks and nature centers
Add it to trail, camping, or visitor pages so guests know which venomous snakes to watch for before they head out.
Schools and extension offices
A ready-made local species list for science classes, 4-H, master naturalist programs, and county extension pages.
Pest and wildlife pros
Show customers the species in your service area and what to do if they are bitten, without writing it yourself.
What you get
- Free
- No sign-up, no account, no API key.
- Private
- No cookies, no tracking, no ads. It loads one small data file and the species photos.
- Accurate
- The same verified GBIF and iNaturalist records as our county pages, cleaned of strays and escaped pets.
- Fits anywhere
- Plain HTML that adapts to any column down to 300 pixels wide and stays out of your site's styles.
Good to know
You can place more than one box on a page, for example a county and its state. Load the script once and add a snakefinder-widget div for each place.
The species list updates on its own when our data does, so a story published this spring stays correct next spring. Counts match the county or state page, built with the method on our methodology page.
The box is for identification and awareness only. It is not medical advice: anyone bitten should call 911 or Poison Control at 1-800-222-1222.
