Killing rattlesnakes on sight causes a further problem, as the characteristic warning rattle is what usually reveals them, the ones who remain quiet will be the ones that survive, thus creating an evolutionary pressure for snakes that don't warn you when they feel threatened making bites actually more likely.

The coolest fact to know about rattle snakes is how many ticks they eat every year. There was a study done on this and if i remember correctly a single rattlesnake can eat 20,000 ticks a year in the process of eating rodents. Without snakes like them you would be far more likely to get Lime disease when walking in the woods.

I actually have a fun story: we have a type of snake around here called a rat snake, and while they don't look like rattlers, I once saw one try to bluff as one by waggling his tail at us. When we didn't buy it and kept poking at him with a stick to shoo him further into the woods, he zipped away really quick. Was pretty cool to see that kind of mimicry in person.

IIRC in addition to nonvenomous snakes that mimic rattlesnakes, there's also snakes that do the rattle motion even without having rattlesnakes around; quickly swishing their tail through foliage and other things to make noise to scare things off. There's also the Spider-tailed Viper that instead of having a rattle, basically has a lure that looks like a spider/beetle/centipede that it uses as a lure to get things closer to strike distance.

I love snakes. There's a lot of harmless snakes that shake their tail too. If it's in a dense foliage area it can sound kind of like a rattle.

I live in Alberta. When I lived on a farm in southern Alberta as a boy, I was forewarned about Rattlesnakes. One time, climbing around HooDoos I heard the distinctive rattle of that tail. I located where it was by listening, turned right around and high tailed it out of there. I had no desire to make eye contact, I only went by sound and figured that was all I needed to activate the flight part of the fight or flight instinct. I immediately located and informed a park employee and stayed clear. Yep, I'm bite free and feeling awful lucky.

I once visited a small Native American settlement in the southwest. They kept peafowl, which to my surprise kill rattlesnakes. There were rattlers in the surrounding foothills but none in the settlement itself due to the peacocks & peahens. The scary thing about rattlesnakes is that you might not see them in the underbrush while hiking. Stay on the trails and don't kill the wildlife.

That noise was just proven to be more complicated than previously thought. They increase frequency as a threat gets closer. That increase in frequency tricks your ear into thinking you are closer than you actually are, which makes most people stop dead in their tracks.

As campers we were taught how to catch them and contain them by using our trousers tied off at both ends. You could transport two snakes that way. Afterwards you had to wash your trousers with soap, we use Sunlight bars, to get rid of the venom. The camp never killed a snake, they just had to keep them off the island.
