That's just freaky about snakes biting after they're dead, could have nightmares about that.
Ann, what an interesting snake, I've never seen that one either, how cool.
I can't even begin to tell you the amount of snakes I've encountered in my 40 plus years living here in Florida, being a camper and hiker, but have yet to come across a rattler. Only one I ever encountered was in GA mountains.
