I always wanted to try rattle snake but never got the chance. I can't believe you guys throw them away. I won't kill nonvenomous snakes.I usually catch them and show them to whoever I'm there with at the time. Kids find them interesting. My friends and I use to catch them when we were young. We use to chase people with them and scare the crap out of them. Not so now.

I once caught a 6ft+ black snake at an Amusement park one time.A small crowd gathered round and wanted me to kill it. I ask why? As I let it slither around in my hands,I explained to the small crowd, that this snake is not poisonous and would rather get away than attack a person. I explained that their bite doesn't hurt and the worse thing they can do is sh!t on you, cause it stinks.
