Hey mundt we have rattle snakes here in WI.. I have seen them and my cousin in trempeleau killed a couple while building his house a few years ago.. They have some mounted in the DNR station in Eau Claire that were killed over the years in WI.. I have never been bit by one but am kinda nervous about going out to WY this fall for antelope.. The area I am hunting has quite a few, so I am told... Hopefully wont see or even hear any... Will be buying snake boots before I go..Uncomfortable or not...
