Black and yellow

I remember the coral snake saying, "black and yellow kill a fellow, black and red nothing to dread".

That saying can get you killed. Both the coral snake and the mountain king snake the black touches yellow. If the red touches yellow, you're in trouble. Daddy's sayin was "red touches yellow kill a fella"

Here's the mountain king snake. Compare it to the coral snake above. You'll notice the black and yellow touch on both snakes. Only the red and yellow touch on the coral snake.
