snake load for my Remington

The cobra in the last video appears to be a spectacled Indian cobra, not a King Cobra. The king Cobra is normally marked with V shaped chevrons on the back of the hood and sometimes all the way down the body.

It is very common for rattlesnakes to den up with others to conserve heat and winter together, going their separate ways when the weather warms up.

The snakes removed from under the modular housing unit are doing the owner a favor by keeping the rats and mice away. I worked as a service electrician for a time during my career and I think I would prefer a few snakes under the building instead of some of the other critters I have run across under mobile homes and modular housing. Rats and mice bring disease, fleas, ticks, toxic waste and worst. Now, that said, 45 snakes denning up under the house is something that needs to be mitigated, no argument there. Hopefully the individual collecting them will relocate them to a more conducive environment for their survival. Since he did not kill them and took the time to not just pile them all into a barrel I believe that he probably did the responsible thing with them. Scatter them out over several square miles in open range and let them help keep the vermin under control.

Nature designed them to do just that!!!

So the tales go, the initial release into the glades was from a couple of pet dealers whose businesses were wrecked by the hurricane and the release was purely accidental. The monkey troops at large were from a couple of labs that did not have secured enclosures. New laws have since been passed to assured enclosure and\or any animals of that nature are properly secured. Any enclosures that cannot be secured the animals have to be removed and placed in secure shipping bins for the duration of the storm. It is too little too late but at least they are trying to mitigate any future species issues from developing.

I wonder if a long-cylinder weapon such as a Walker or Dragoon suits best as a snake-load trail gun. The chambers are deeper than most other guns so you can load more shot.
