Field notes beside a wild snake observation at a safe distance

Safety before the notebook

Do not handle snakes because an app suggested a name. Photograph from a distance, leave an escape path, and treat unknown snakes as dangerous until a qualified person says otherwise.

AnimalDex is educational. It is not a safety authority.

Minimum useful record

A still or short clip, an honest identity or group, a historical place, and whether the animal was wild. That is enough to keep the find in a Dex.
