Rattle Snake Round Up

[Catherine]

When I first saw the tittle of this I nearly panicked. They round up Rattle Snakes to milk the venom so the hospitals can make 
anti venom. If it is done right the snakes are not hurt so I guess it is alright. They would be disturbed, but they will still be fine once turned loose. 
The event does do a lot to educate people about rattlesnakes so it is good. This is one of those odd human animal interactions that it a bit disturbing, but no one is hurt.

I still have mixed feelings, but I can see the good that comes from it. I hope they treat the snakes carefully. Rattlesnakes are beautiful and I would want them to be treated with the respect they deserve. 

Without anti venom people would be more aggressive towards rattlesnakes so this event does help protect the snakes from humans.
