Many FReeper Years ago a member from New Mexico posted a thread about a snake that was under her desk and she had her foot on it to immobilize it while she pleaded for help to identify it and what to do about it. The thread went to 200 or 300 post and when help came it turned out to be a little (?) Western Diamondback...
Holy snakebite! A “little” Western Diamond Back could be highly poisonous. And I think that it would be hard to immobilize it unless you were stepping on its head!
