Five common garter snakes (Thamnophis sertalis) were run on an elevated Y-maze to find out if they might learn:(1) a Y-maze, and (2) the correct location of the goal box by choosing the right pathway to the goal (place learning). Results indicated that Thamnophis sertails can learn a Y-maze as well as place learning.
