re: #207 Jadespring

A rattlesnake lives somewhere on my property. Seen it a couple of times now. First time, hubby got a pitch fork and moved it back to the pond.

The thing is extremely rare and on the endangered list so there is no way I’m gonna off it.

I’m just more careful and make sure I wear boots when I walk in the long grass and don’t stick my hands into places I can’t see before checking.

It’s not that big a deal.

There’s no way rattlesnakes are endangered. I’ve seen like 5 within a mile of my house and I live in the city limits. Unless it’s like one species of rattlesnake.

Oh and not a big deal? Try getting bit by one ;) I’m certainly no proponent of going and randomly killing a bunch of them, but I’d much prefer they not be around me wherever I happen to be.
