Hunters Learn Rattlesnake Habits For Outdoor Safety
Veteran reptile authority Joseph Laszlo of the San Antonio Zoo urges outdoorsmen to study rattlesnake activity patterns tied to weather time of day and season. He notes snakes seek cover in extreme temperatures but move when surface heat ranges 70 to 88 degrees, especially at dusk. He advises sturdy boots and snake proof clothing and carrying a flashlight during dawn and dusk hikes. If bitten, a new first aid method uses crushed ice to slow venom and a Snakebite Freeze kit is available through pharmacies and Amerex Laboratories in San Antonio.
