    I have no desire to wipe out Rattle Snakes as such, but sometimes when people are involved it is like clearing a mine field.

    We weren’t trying eradicate the rattlesnake population. Just keep our immediate are as safe as possible.

    Used to go to the rattlesnake hunts around Strawn every year. It's fun, but man the place is literally overrun with them, used to be anyway, and everybody slept in campers or on cots, lol.

    Different town, but only one of several. Georgia used to have big ones, too, near some famousr mountain I can't recall at the moment.

    Ah, it seems the Burb Brat commies killed off the Georgia hunt. Wonder what will happen to the bite stats there in a couple of years.

    Hey what's a few more dead kids and tourists when some 'activists' can pat themselves on the back and move on after accomplishing nothing?

    Maybe they shot that game during the season and posted it later. Maybe they shot in Canada where the seasons are different.
