Hmm - that's Yahoo for you. I try to avoid it as mush as possible. I couldn't find the same piece elsewhere at the time, but a month on this looks like the same article..
The interactive map is pretty cool. It's interesting that the further north you go, the more it just becomes adders.
My only interaction with snakes in the wild was in the Cairngorms. Twice in the same day!
