Why do blue runner snakes chase you?

Blue runner snakes, also known as blue racers, may chase humans when they feel threatened or cornered. Their behavior is typically a defensive response rather than an aggressive one; they may perceive a person as a potential threat to their territory. Additionally, blue racers are known for their speed and agility, which can make it seem like they are "chasing" when they are actually trying to escape or evade danger. In general, these snakes prefer to avoid confrontation and will usually flee if given the chance.
