Yikes.. We were just at Steamboat Rock SP, and the CG hosts came around and warned us about the rattle snakes in the CG. One was coiled up under a vehicle one morning 2 sites from us.
Our son's baby sitter's husband was Park Ranger at Sun Lakes SP about 30 years ago, and invited us up to his house. He had a 6' long rattle snake in an aquarium that was as large around as my forearm. I was used to smaller Pacific rattlers that were 1/3 that size. Yikes, again.
A camped with a friend's family at Alta Lake SP about 50+ years ago (I'm old) and they caught a rattle snake and a 6' long gopher snake and brought home. We used to play with that snake, until it got away from us. I can imagine some kid seeing a tail sticking out from the brush in Western WA, and pulling out that snake thinking that it was a garter snake. Yikes again.
