"For the uninformed, pigs love to eat rattlesnakes."

For the record, pigs love to eat anything that does not eat them first.

" I have a neighbor ranching lady who was bitten 3 weeks ago 2 times by the same snake without any warning"

She should have hit him with the splat-o-matic after the first bite. Hopefully, lesson learned.

"The wild hogs are a problem (ferrule ..."

Just for the record, they are feral, not ferrule.

I saw that (ferrule) in the fwd email, didn’t know if it was a Texas thing or what:)

I am up in Mich now, but was born and raised in TX...and had plenty of run-ins with rattlers. My cousin was bit while we were playing in the garden.

Scary stuff.
