MISSOURI IS NOT THE ONLY PLACE THAT HAS RATTLESNAKES. WASHINGTON HAS THEM TOO. BUT THERE IS A DIFFERENCE. THE ONES DOWN SOUTH SLIVER THROUGH THE GRASS AND TRY TO AVOID PREY. THE WASHINGTONIAN ONES SLIVER THROUGH THE PURSE AND BILLFOLD BUT THEY HAVE LEGS AND FEET AND DO A LOT MORE DAMAGE. jAY SR.Next time you're out in the tall grass, remember this one.
This snake was recently found at the J & L Tack located just south of Poplar Bluff
on Highway 67 south of Town.
A reminder that these creatures are actually out there and no matter what you believe,
Sometimes they should get not only prescriptive rights to be there but the full right of way!
9 feet, 1 inch - 97 lbs.
I have a picture of this rattlesnake but couldn't get it to print on this board. Let me know if you want to see it and I will email it to you. Jay Sr.
