    Not weird at all. Very important. You help and educate people, help the natural environment. Too many people are separated from nature and the importance of rattlesnakes in the ecosystem. Look how many people call now instead of just killing them.

    Have any of your staff members taken a business card to the fire departments and said call us to handle snake removal calls? I've heard they get about 300 calls a year and they could handle emergency calls and leave snake removal calls to the experts who believe its essential to relocate these animals.

    We have offered to help in a number of ways, including providing training on how to do it properly. It is up to each department which services they'll provide, and thankfully some are opting to get out of the wildlife services game to focus on their very important work. We are looking into some other things, but nothing I can discuss openly at this time.

    I noticed whenever you release a snake, you generally want it to go down a hole. I've a few videos where the snake is just resting on the surface. Why do you make the snake go down a hole instead of letting it be? Thanks.

I know that you and your team are doing the very best for the snakes as they may find certain death at the hands of others. I admire your work and wish you all safe retrievals and relocations. I also wonder how many rattlesnakes you and your team walk past when looking for a good relocation place.

    Snake handling courses, if you look for them in the internet you can likely find one close to you. They give you training on how to use the tools shown and how to relocate a snake (if needed) As for the capability to do relocation as a profession, you’d likely have to apply for a nuisance animal removal permit.

    There's no way of knowing if a predator will capture a relocated animal within 24 hours of its release. Every wild animal is potentially some other wild animal's lunch. Relocation does not change the laws and behaviors of nature. One can argue that the artificial habitats (e.g. - residential neighborhoods) change the densities of nearby native species; relocation is arguably the best solution.
