Beware: There are rattlers among us!
According to Slyapich, the proliferation of rattlesnakes is all a part of a healthy, working ecosystem. “More growth means more seeds, means more rodents, means fat rattlers,” he said. “Mom can have 20-plus kids in late fall, around October or early November. Then they go in hibernation.”
Slyapich refered to the early seasonal surge as a “bumper crop.”
“We’ll see a bumper crop early,” he said. “The babies are smaller, so they warm up first, and that means they come out first.”
