We live rural. One evening, we were in the front yard with
our cat (we live on 16 acres). Suddenly, she jumped
BACKWARDS several feet in the air & took off. - She had
happened upon a COPPERHEAD! Husband dispatched it. Then just
a couple of weeks later, he killed one on our back porch
evidently headed for the dog’s food dish. - We used to
mostly kill rattlesnakes out here; but looks like the
silent strikers (copperheads) got in ascendancy. - He’s
killed well over 30 rattlers out here in the 30 yrs. we’ve
been living on this place. - He wanted to filet the last
one he killed; but I told him NO! - not going in my freezer.
I put up with fishing worms he keeps in the fridge; but
I’m not gonna smell rattler cookin’ in my cast iron
skillet!!

Smells like pork when frying, tastes like chicken when cooked. Try it, you’ll like it!
