Tricky poll, I voted yes. I go out of my way to get close to snakes but not to kill them.

maybe a little too much, i mean before you know it they will be hiding in the leaves just outside your personal space just watching.....waiting.....waiting to lash out and sink their teeth into whatever piece of muscular flesh you expose and not releasing you until they have adequately expelled their venom. Stalkers :roll:

rattlesnakes are my favorites, especially when they bite people who bring radios to the crag and make them go into convulsions, twitching to the beat of the bad music they have playing

I have heard a rumor that some ass hole killed the copperheads that live in that stump. I heard that and it pissed me off, especially after watching their little baby's leave the stump for the first time and go find their own stumps. I'd say we should kill the people that kill the snakes, to bad the government disapproves this train of thought though.

I agree allah, its kinda shitty. there was only one that we saw yesterday and it did not look that old. There may have been more a little deeper though.

i went to western africa a few years ago. i was warned about black mambas as they would (unlike all other snakes) go the source of a stimulus. one young girl i met had a foot that looked like a basketball from when she had been attacked as a kid (lucky she didn't die).

anyway, all snakes in the u.s. usually slither away from stimulus.

leave 'em alone. unless they attack. then kill them.
