Re: are rattlesnakes poisonous?

JoeBob......our team mascot happens to be a Rattler....we've got tons of them here......yes they are venomous, and yes you can possibly die from them, but the most common and dangerous thing that might happen would be to loose circulation to hands, feet etc...due to the swelling.....which could then require amputation if medical attnetion can't be had immediately.......prairie rattlers are not known to be extrememly deadly, but they are extremnely dangerous and should not be messed with.......unless you are a bonehead like me, and like to catch them and skin/tan their hides....LOL
