They are kind of cute snakes!
When i was about 16, my older brother called me. He was working for a local sign company at the time.
They had stumbled upon 2 ring neck snakes in the construction debris where they were working.
Both stuck in brown packing tape.
He called me to see where I was, dropped them off with me & said "here, see if you can save them".
I spent about 4 hours, very very slowly and carefully peeling the tape off of their tiny bodies!
I was successful! Luckily we were pretty experienced with reptiles as pets, so i had an aquarium, heat rock, etc.
I kept them for 24hrs to let them recover, then released them.
Wow! A terrible situation, but great job! Glad to hear that it worked out for them.
