It's illegal to kill rattlers in Pa. You may want to delete your post if it isn't already to late. He's off his meds......He meant VA. Shooting snakes at the VA?? Yes, Jim. The VA has lots of them.

You are supposed to kill them in Texas either. There is a lot of them on my old lease by Woodville Texas. I’ve only seen one in 40 plus years at my house. I live in the piney woods. Yes, Not supposed to kill them How many rattles did that one have, Hanco

Sort of an aside, "Rattlesnake Bill" Watson ran the old Goldrock mine south of Dryden, Ontario in the early 1900's. William Watson acquired his nickname as a logger in the American southwest. Bill was sitting on a log eating his mid day meal. When reached to his plate on the ground for a sausage, he came up with a rattlesnake instead.

We have a few rattlers in one small section in south western Vt. Never seen one though but have seen the signs while turkey hunting telling people to stay out of the cliff area in the spring.

Protected here....WTF...it is a venomous snake. Why protect them. Sycamore cued me on to this good book... "America's Snake"... https://www.amazon.com/Americas-Snake-Rise-Timber-Rattlesnake/dp/022604064XIn the northeast part of its range, the timber rattlesnake was always local in distribution, dependent on a relatively few suitable denning sites. Said sites now often hemmed in and isolated by highways. So in New York/New England they are down to a few remnant, inbred populations.

I never kill a rattlesnake, unless I have the opportunity. (Yup !) If I never know he is there, he is fine and free to go about his business. I hate rattlesnakes. Some close calls as a kid made a lasting impression. Fortunately for me and them, I don't run into one very often.
