greybeard, I have seen a number of snakes bite themself. I have seen foxes savagely bite themselves in a leghold trap. When I trapped, I was always told by the old trappers that they, "chew their leg off to get out of the trap". I believe they are biting at the object of their pain and the result is the same.

I have caught and handled a bunch of copperheads. A few timber rattlesnakes. A big rattlesnake is a handfull. It has scared me a few times when they contract their muscles.

Guys from Texas have a sureal fear of snakes. I was pronghorn antelope hunting with a co-worker who was born and raised in Texas not far from San Antonio. We were south of Rawlins in the Red Desert country. I found a small prairre rattler. Caught it. When I walked over to show it to Bill, he moved his gun up to port arms and seriously warned me not to come closer. I knew he was dead serious and I stepped back away and let the snake go. He never forgave for letting it go.

Not fear--hatred.
Got bit by one--that's enough.

Don't blame him a bit. Bring me a snake to "look" at and you would regret it for the rest of your life. Some things are just not funny!

Its still up on youtube.. i see it was in Huntsville AL. not TX ... the man is pretty typical of the rocket city residents .but aleast he had the balls to kill it himself, and not call the police or animal control... so he gets half a thumbs up :cowboy:

greybeard, bit by a copperhead or rattlehead?
I know the clinical side of snakebite. I will be the first to say. I pray I will never be bitten!!!

They wouldn't have had that picture if i had killed that SOB.

It would have been a picture of 84 pieces of a cottonmouth puzzle

I know one guy from Louisiana that really does not like them.
I'm with Bill on this.
Fellow was chasing me with a snake "one" time. I was running and reaching for my knife. When I got the knife out and wheeled around he saw what "I" had. Then I chased him.

Why would you be handling snakes? You from that partiular religion that does it to show your faith?
I can think of no other explanation.
