Rattlesnake Appreciation Day – January 28, 2024
Rattlesnake Appreciation Day
- Rattlesnakes are among the deadliest venomous snakes in the Americas.
- The identifying rattles are used to scare potential predators.
- Rattlesnakes can deliver a fatal bite to human beings up to an hour after they are “dead.”
- These snakes have a very slow metabolism, so many of their bodily functions remain active even after they have been fatally wounded.
