Originally native throughout Mississippi, Louisiana and Alabama, the Black Pine Snake now only exists in the Washington Park region of Louisiana, three counties in Alabama, and fourteen counties in southern Mississippi. They are an endangered species in Mississippi and a protected non-game species in Alabama. Most of the Black Pine Snakes in existence live in DeSoto National Forest in Mississippi. The current conservation status of the Black Pine Snake is now undetermined as they were once part of the now defunct Category 2 of the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. This category, which has been eliminated, was reserved for animals that little information existed on and were therefore not able to be classified as threatened or endangered.
