Nice pics.

Stopped and flicked one off my road last Thurs. I hate to see them get squashed sunbathing. 8)

Now that is interesting . Those pics look just like the ones attributed to an area in my home state. Typical internet "buzz"

One man's infestation is another man's dinner.

Snakes are edible, if you can catch them without them killing you.

I rather cross a a nest of Arizona rattlesnakes than be chased by a Oklahoma cottonmouth when it's shedding.

They are tasty, but they sure have a lot of bones! And small pointy ones at that!

Reminds me of something I tell my boy. If you're going to kill it I hope you plan on eating it. Only exception being if its trying to kill you! Zombies for instance... :-D

If you cook it right(tender) you can pull the vertebrae and ribs from the meat pretty easily.
