They are a protected species in most states and you can get in trouble for

Several years ago at a family reunion my nephew nearly stepped on one. It was way too close to where we were camping

I know how I’d deal with a rattlesnake if I was in a backhoe, and that ain’t it.

Don't kill them. They're doing good things with the venom. Pretty cool stuff.
