Most of them are as scared of us as we are of them. Except maybe copperheads.
Snakes don't bother me as much as bugs.

Well, we don't have any poisonous bugs either... 'cept a few black widows, and the give a nasty welt but not much more than that.
I have a little experience with rattlesnake country from Arizona... walking always where you could see your feet, and carrying a stick. We had small rattlers in Eastern WA where I went to school too.
But you're right... the creepiest critter on the planet is a bug... I've seen scorpions in Phoenix.
water moccasions are aggressive too, they will strike without provocation. Have I mentioned before that I HATE SNAKES!
Back to nice little trail rides on beautiful horses.......: )
