I have only seen one other case in 19 years working in the rest of Ohio. All dogs survived, but they were pretty miserable for a while.<BR><BR>That IS a beautiful snake (in a bucket, in a photo, on the Internet.) I don't think I would fnid him so beautiful in person, in my garden or garage. I get plenty of garter snakes and the occasional black snake here, but no copperheads, thank goodness!<BR><BR>KathiKatDocnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2552045987668023231.post-68328279128348235062006-07-03T19:11:00.000-04:002006-07-03T19:11:00.000-04:00Believe me, if it were legal and doable, we'd happ...Believe me, if it were legal and doable, we'd happily share our copperheads with y'all.<BR><BR>I had an acquaintance tell me once that we could make lots of money selling the snakes either to the pet trade or for "religious" uses.<BR><BR>Ummm.

I have been trying to increase my snake population to re-balance nature since I moved back to Mississippi 10 years ago, but there are so many scaredy-cat snake haters here that snakes don't have much of a chance. If people don't shoot them, they poison their food sources.<BR><BR>I wish I could have a few scares, then I would know I was doing a good job getting things back to normal in my little piece of heaven.Wisteriahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01646131135706997373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2552045987668023231.post-8181384349902361832006-07-03T18:08:00.000-04:002006-07-03T18:08:00.000-04:00Living in the western half of the PNW, a copperhea...Living in the western half of the PNW, a copperhead is an exotic species, one I have not had the pleasure.

Our son, a grown man & naturalist in his own right, actually created a "snake haven" deeper in our woods where he placed boards just so & where we can take said snakes & deposit them, safe & sound. We have found most of ours are docile and rather sweet! And, as I try to convince others, "there has never been a recorded death from the bite of a copperhead". Unfortunately, most folks cannot be convinced & seem hesitant to pay us a visit!Sue Ann Floydnoreply@blogger.com
