Rattlesnake found in Old Town Alexandria, Va
Happy ending to this story

Not a very scientific article ("goes by the name American Viper"  ) and they don't seem to be aware that snakes brumate through the winter, lol. I hate to break it to them, but this is probably NOT the "only one there".

Right? I guess no one told all the timber rattlesnakes in New England that it’s too cold for them to live there either

 I guess they're happier living with their delusions?
My guess is they've heard similar things said about the burms in Florida, that they can't survive further north, & assumed it goes for other snakes too? They sure didn't do their homework.
