Paragraph edit (about queen snakes)?
The Queen Snake also known as Regina septemvittata is found in eastern North America. It is found from Ontario south to Florida and west to the Mississippi river. The locations in these areas in which you can find the Queen Snake are in clear, small rivers where there is good rock cover. The most common food that a Queen Snake consumes on is crayfish. This magnificent Queen Snake can grow up to 90cm long. It is brown-olive above, with a pale stripe along each side and three dark stripes down the back. The belly is yellow with four dark stripes. The population information for Queen Snakes is lacking and for that reason the population of Queen Snakes is unknown. The factors contributing to the decline of Queen Snakes are habitat loss as waterways are drained, disturbed or drained. Crayfish, which are their main food, are sensitive to acidification and heavy metals and as waterways have become polluted and the crayfish dying out, the Queen Snake population is on a decline.

The Queen Snake also known as Regina Septemvittata is found in eastern North America. It is found all the way north in Ontario to locations south in Florida and as far west as the Mississippi river. The Queen Snake is found in areas that are near clear rivers where there is good rock cover. These areas often contain the Queen snake's most common food, the crayfish. This magnificent Snake can grow up to 90cm or around three feet long. It is two-toned with brown-olive on top, with a pale stripe along each side and three dark stripes down the back. The belly is yellow with four dark stripes. Since the snake is seldom seen, it is difficult to get an accurate count of the population of Queen Snakes. Because of destruction and infiltration of the snake's habitat, it is suspected that the numbers are down. Factors contributing to the decline of Queen Snakes are habitat losses as waterways are disturbed or drained by construction and real estate developments. Crayfish, which are their main food, are sensitive to acidification and heavy metals and as waterways have become polluted and the crayfish dying out, the Queen Snake population is on a decline.

This is rough–but I don't have enough time to do better. Keep working on it.
