Snakes

This year approximately 7,000 people will be bitten by poisonous snakes in the United States and this will result in 14 or 15 deaths and many days of serious and incapacitating illness. About 10% of these bites will occur during hunting and fishing activities, and the angler may expect to get the worst of it as he will be out when the snakes are most active. They will be more sluggish or in hibernation during the fall hunting season in many areas.
Lest this information discourages anyone from going afield, remember that the average danger of being bitten is very slight and that the mortality rate in adequately treated cases is as low as 3%. There is usually far more danger in driving your car to the fishing area. However reassuring this statistics may be, there is still a great latent fear in most people and one of the best protective measures is to know your snakes and know their habits.
