So because Im human Im a hypocrite for thinking the mass killing of rattlesnakes is wrong? I dont understand your logic. Because there is an abundance of them makes it right? There is a huge demand for cow meat, cows bred specifically to be eaten. If they want to go kill thousands of rattlesnakes they should breed them to do that then. Not take animals from the wild bring them into captivity to be tortured and killed. Im not justifying the way we kill the animals we eat at all just dont see a comparison.
As far as camping goes I know Im not being destructive in anyway including killing what already lives there. So my stance is If I see a rattlesnake Ill let it be. Unfortunately there are hicks on tv doing it for show.
