Super User Gundog Posted June 19, 2018 Author Super User Posted June 19, 2018 The day I was there I overheard one of the wranglers tell his friend that one of the other wranglers who was out catching snakes had been bit and was headed to the hospital. Luckily they had plenty of anti-venom on hand. Quote

Super User Log Catcher Posted June 19, 2018 Super User Posted June 19, 2018 I would not be a part of the roundup but I would give them a hollow point headache. 3 Quote
Super User Gundog Posted June 20, 2018 Author Super User Posted June 20, 2018 That is one big snake. Good thing for the plastic tube. This is how they get the rattler in the tube. They put the snake on the ground and then some brave fool holds the tube down by the snake. That job would not be mine. Quote

Hearing those rattles gave me the willeys. And of course there was the prankster who would go around with a twig and run it up people's legs just to see them jump. Quote

Sounds like the prankster had a very good time finding out who's terrified of snakes. 1 Quote
