August 17, 2008: Yucky Snake Guts
Hey, I warned ya.
Sometimes when you eliminate an immediate danger, you unknowingly eliminate a much larger potential danger. Rattlesnakes, being Vipers, give birth to live young complete with fangs & venom, and ready to bite. Yeah yeah, control rodents, part of the ecosystem, blah blah blah. So are muggers.

Looks like about 18 baby snakes.

I'd go stir fry, but it looks like they're already on the griddle.

Holy crap. That just gave me a bad case of the willies. Having encountered a few snakes in my day I have a healthy respect (read fear) of all snakes.

This reminds me of True Grit when the horse shooter from Texas ...

Ya know come to think of it, those would come in very handy when cooking. When a recipe calls for something to be wrapped in bacon and secured with toothpicks...ta da! Built in toothpicks. I don't think they would be salty enough. May have to brine them first.

FTR, I believe in live and let live when possible. Rattlesnakes at least attempt to warn you of their presence while muggers try to avoid detection.

I love that song. Can't help it, I do! Something about the "scarlet billows all around" strikes me as hilarious.

Yucky.
Reminds me of the Indiana Jones & the Temple of Doom scene with the baby eels. Just about had me sick in my lap. I don't remember when I left exactly - probably about the same time as Willie. |

We have eaten them. Neighbor shot one a few years ago and I taught my Dau how to skin it, she was like 9. I have a great pic of her skinning them. They have to be cooked in a deep fry to taste decent. We tried to cook it on the grill, didn't work out so well. But you could certainly eat it if you were in a survival situation without a problem.
I will have to find those pics and post them. It was in 2002.
