    Here's me moving him off the road.

    And here he is back in the empty lot from which he most likely came.

    Not really. They say the small ones have more concentrated venom and less control over how much they inject. However, a big rattler can give you a dose 100x's greater in quantity and deliver it deeper into your body.

    I remember seeing on TV once, where this really fat woman went into an outhouse in the jungle, and got bit in the crotch by a snake like that.

    Thing was hiding down in the dumphole. As soon as she sat down and started to take a crap....ZAP!! :eek:
