You can usually find bullfrogs around ponds and creeks and damp places. I found this one in a creek. They eat small insects, and get much bigger than this one. Bullfrogs have webbed feet, which makes it easier for them to move in the water.

Blue-Tailed Lizard
Blue-tailed lizards eat insects such as beetles, small grasshoppers, and ants. This lizard was about four inches long, but they can grow to about eight inches long. If a predator tries to eat this lizard and catches it by the tail, the lizard's tail will fall off. That is how they survive. Then they grow a new tail.
Garden Snake
These snakes are harmless and when they're first born they eat little lizards and frogs and insects. When they get bigger they start eating mice and rats. You can find them under rocks and under dead leaves. I found this one under some dead leaves. It is about 18 inches long. Garden snakes grow to about 5-6 feet long.

Turtle
Ring Snake
Ring snakes are harmless. They grow to about two feet long. They are blackish-grey in color with a yellowish-gold ring around their necks. I found this ring snake while moving bales of hay. I can usually find ring snakes under rocks, in damp places, and by the woods. They like to eat worms, tiny spiders, slugs, and insects such as ladybugs and other small beetles.
