Catch and release=NOT an option!

Found this little critter hanging out in front of my wife's storage container this afternoon.
First one of the year, probably the biggest I've ever seen here.

Good thing for the built in alarm system on these things!

Well that's a nice fat one. Looks to be around 4' long, or am I reading that wrong?

Poison type snakes and I have an understanding. (1) If I am invading their territory and they do not attempt to strike me, then I leave them alone. If they invade my territory, then they go to the great snake heaven in the sky.

For your sake I certainly hope he doesn't know how to shoot!

 

[TMT Tactical]

@angie_nrs Are you worried for me or BBQJoe? If I see them sporting firearms, we will have a whole different set of problems.

Oh I see, the snake had a gun (wink wink). And you had no choice but to shoot it (wink). And that's why you always carry a drop gun in the desert.

Sounds like a good plan to me. :lil guy:

If I put a notch on the handle for every snake that gun took out, there wouldn't be one.
But I'm pretty sure I can file them all under preventative self defense.
