I hope this video can inform the public about what a venomous snake encounter is like. Furthermore, preventing snake bites is relatively easy, especially when the species encountered has a rattle. Despite having studied this species for 2+ summers, I’ve never been struck at. They rattle, try to retreat, and will only strike as a last resort. Please respect our wildlife ❤️
