Here's a good rattlesnake quiz. Evidently you keep track of your score and figure the results at the end. Be prepared for obnoxious buzzer when you miss.

Not good on the stats end. I got about 60% right.

Failed miserably, but then again I never claimed to be a Herpetologist.

I should send this to the mod of the local Nextdoor site. She repeatedly bans anyone who talks about killing a snake. I never post on the site but just scan the email updates on local posts and make an occasional comment to stupid posts. The people on Nextdoor are refugees from Dallas and Houston who move out to the country and bring their liberal views out here.

I got slammed for commenting on the mod’s repeated posts about how killing snakes destroys the ecosystem. I pointed out that she destroyed the native ecosystem by paying for a lakeside home where the bulldozed trees, scraped the land, burned the brush and scorched a natural habitat in order to lay asphalt, pour concrete and build homes. A little late to worry about the ecosystem

Since we don't have rattle snakes in my neighborhood I'll skip the quiz... Although we do have a good sized black snake that hang out by the wood pile... Archie's not impressed... Dan

failed so badly I went and put on my snake boots.

might want to buy some snake boots, just sayin.

Venomous Snakes of Tennessee

I don't have diamondbacks . . . yet. This was laying beside the truck a few years back:

I knew I wouldn’t do very well, but I found a lot of those questions and answers interesting. Pretty cool animals.

2 years without food. That's pretty amazing.

Dislike snakes so much I’m not even going to open that page. Dead snake = good snake.

I think I got about half right, didn’t see where the score was added up.

Only got 4 wrong...was a nerd when it came to snakes early on in my years.

I did well on the rattle snake questions, I only missed 2 but missed at least half of the questions on other snakes.

LMAO about how I feel when I see a snake. Didn't want to cloud my judgment about snakes.....Know all I need to know about snakes...DON'T F with them...Look, smell and listen when I walk anywhere outside period in Texas. I've had them cooperheads in the pool, literally packs of baby rattlesnakes 5 inches long appearing in the yard. Talking about puckering up....Never found momma snake...like she dropped of at my house since she can sense the fear.
