[QUOTE="Sheri, post: 141708, member: 2721"] Ok, I understand why some of us hate the rattlers. I do. But if you appreciate what the non-venomous snakes do to control the rodent population... you must understand what the rattlers do... there are many species of rattler in the US, and 3 in Canada. If you were to subtract them from the population you would see a massive increase in the number of rodents - with the hanta virus, many are appreciating rodent control even more than previously. If you find a rattler on your property, place it in a plastic bucket and remove it. There are also rattler rescuers in every state that can be called. Here is a link: [url=http://www.anapsid.org/societies/venomousrelocators.html]http://www.anapsid.org/societies/venomo ... ators.html[/url] There is no reason why we can't try and respect the same ecosystem that provides for us, in terms of economic longevity, it makes sense to do so. I prefer a rattlesnake any day over the corporate cattle cartel. [/QUOTE]
