Snakes are honest. All they want is to eat, sleep, be comfy, & now & then meet another rattlesnake. With people, you never know. We live in S.E. AZ, & have those red diamondbacks too. Sweet memoir, be careful with that snake.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3934656459172973743.post-35061040425603916732010-03-15T11:34:03.665-07:002010-03-15T11:34:03.665-07:00I have grown up in the desert area of Palm Springs...I have grown up in the desert area of Palm Springs and 40 years ago me and a friend use to catch and milk Diamond backs and Sidewinders and Eishenhower med ctr. would buy our venom for anti-venom but I stopped after I got careless one day and almost got bit by a sidewinder changing its water. Also your very lucky to have caught and actually seen the 'Rear Fanged Lyre' snake since they are so rare and hard to find and I'm glad you let it go. I've always frowned on hearing people who kill rattlesnakes just because its a rattlesnake rather then just walk away from them and leave them alone. And I too have eaten rattlesnake prepared by a local Indian but was too tough and stringy for my taste. And it does taste and look like chicken.

We just have to be aware of, and stay away from the parts that can inflict pain, and handle with love and care.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09816980938480756285noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3934656459172973743.post-40739342417006812912009-04-21T09:52:00.000-07:002009-04-21T09:52:00.000-07:00This post brings a tear to my eye.
