If you have a whole bunch of rattlesnakes in your tiny front yard, and you have to walk through them to get to your car, you or your family will get bitten at some point. Maybe you’ll live, maybe you’ll lose a foot, maybe you’ll die. But think about how nice it will be to have rattlesnakes in both yards making baby rattlesnakes.

I think it’s worth it!
