Default Question not a poll.... [dangerous wildlife encounters]
Not sure how or if I can take a poll. But to the point. One of the threads got me to thinking about wildlife encounters. Has anyone ever encountered any deadly wildlife?

Last summer I took a ride through some rual mountain areas near where I live. I came up on a snake in the lane ahead of me. Someone had just hit it, it was still rolling and tumbling in a ball. Turned out to be a rattler. I did not stick around to measure, or see exactly what type, in this area proably eastern diamond back. It looked it might go between 2 and 3 feet long.

If it could still move I figured it could still bite. Glad the cage or whatever ahead of me got it instead.

Peace Hoop
