I just saved this animal from being killed on the road

[DukeU]

oh I dont care if I get bitten. There is a hospital like 10 miles away but I kept my distance.

I am more scared of those Tarantula Hawks and their electric stingers flying around

 

[Quasar44]

Did you kiss it and make him a nest in yer lap.

NO !! I am not crazy. Just knew it was going to get run over and soon.

Mother Nature takes care of those who take time to care for her babies.
And I'm with her!!!

Thank you for taking time to get one of Mother Natures kids out of harms way.

I would never save a poisonous snake.

But that's just me.

Well a rattle snake does eat 21 rodents per year! that is something.

Respect the circle of life, and you will get respect in return.

Had to get a tree branch and nudge it to safety
. It was belligerent

You were not scared, good for you! I would have been! LOL

NOPE, I have ZERO FEAR of anything. All due to my special medication i am on. I can literally do anything and I dont even get a tad nervous. IT completely numbs that part of the brain.
I have even gone into the dark desert at NIGHT alone with no weapons

Wow!

 

[HikerGuy83]

oh I dont care if I get bitten.

Keep in mind that the venom is one thing.

The bacteria on their fangs from eating rhodents is another and probably the bigger concern to those who treat bites.

I've seen some pretty messed up dogs who got chomped. And it was all due to the infections they contracted due to that bacteria.

What's worse is that bacteria can also live IN THE VENOM.......

And that makes things even more challenging.

Do they have diamondbacks in Israel ???

they have snakes that are just as deadly ..

It's cold blooded. It's basking on the pavement for a reason.

You just ruined his day.

Cars would have smashed him to pieces within 15 minutes.

What's tastier
Timber rattler or a desert rattler

Other night I was driving home and I saw this little black spot in the road and and I'm looking at it and I said s*** it's a little turtle and I kind of swerve but it was too late and I crushed a little f*** and I heard him crush I don't like killing things on the road like that but if I see a turkey vulture eating roadkill I will aim for the turkey vulture cuz they are f**** disgusting animals

Had to do that for three days as an Eagle Scout; part of a 'Lodge' thing and earning a couple of merit badges.

I hate the tarantulas and big red ants worse than the snakes. The rattlers are actually pretty easy to deal with.
