Yea, I believe size of snakescan be exagerated. I got a frantic phone call from my mother in law one afternoon about a six foot rattler under her porch. I was excited and couldn't wait get over there and see the big snake. When I got over there, it was a hog nosed snake that was barely 2 feet long. Knowing my mother in law was watching me and the snake through her living room window, I got it to puff up like a cobra while vibrating its tail like a rattler, and then roll over and play dead. I amazed her when after it played dead, I pick it up like a rope and threw it over her fenceinto the woods.

I told her I scared it to death.

It's pretty cool to do things like that with you mother in law.
