i figure these guys are in their 50's & 60's....the've done a lot of living & thats why they can afford to play with death. But still i know they're doing a good job educating people about snakes n stuff. In my part of the world....Botswana (africa) to be exact...you see a snake near your house you kill it. No negotiations. Thats how we've been raised...cus a snake ain a cute toy to fondle around with!
Doing stunts with snakes that have been gassed and handled to the point of exhaustion is hardly impressive. These snakes are slowly dying and don't have the energy to fight anymore. We shouldn't treat any animal like this even if it is venomous.
i love the rattlesnake hunt its so fun..i dont live there any more but i hope i can go this year!!
Traditions die hard even if they are wrong.

These roundups are nothing but a profit center. They aren't doing a good job educating people about anything other than how to be idiots.
