Pat Long was sitting in a ground blind with his son and hunting hogs near Midway, GA.
This rattler stuck its head into the blind. The son shot it in the head with a ..22 pistol.
9.5' long
Head is 5.5" wide
Fangs are 2.5" long
I think he said it had 22 rattles.
It had the bones of 3 little pigs in its stomach.
How many times have you walked through the woods in the dark?

I hope it wasn't THE three little pigs ...
ReplyDeleteThat bad boy would have killed had it struck one of those hunters. The venom sack would have been enough to have killed 20 people.
ReplyDeleteMust be a timber rattler.Probably a world record size.
ReplyDeleteits a diamondback
ReplyDeleteI don't care what it is, I would have killed it before it killed something else.
ReplyDeleteShame to kill such a successful creature. But I understand that it had to be done. That would be one heck of a personal threat in a small blind.
