Timber Rattlesnake

[Jim Boyd]

I moved the one in my pic with a stick and it never said a word...

First he crawled a little way up a tree and then just crawled back into his lair, which was a large fallen log.

Came back the next day and he was still there.

Males only have about 1/2 mile home range. Females about 1/4 mile. If you relocate one any further than that from where you found it, chances are good that it won`t survive.
