[QUOTE="Ponyroper, post: 212113, member: 423"] We used to trail ride a lot in the badlands and seldom followed the marked trails so we often got into pretty rough stuff. Probably saw fewer than a half dozen rattlers in all the years and even though we all bailed off our horses the moment someone shouted "SNAKE" we only managed to kill one small one for a souvenir and that one we had to dig up a rock slide to get at. They don't want anything to do with you if they have a way to escape but it still pays to keep your eyes open especially in brush and high grass. Rancher south of Mandan told me he had way more rattlers on his land than there were in the badlands around Medora. He warned me not to get off my ATV unless I stopped on bare dirt or rock and even gave me his pistol to carry while I was doing a range inspection on his land. [/QUOTE]
