I admire snakes...but like someone else said, I don't like surprises, and that would certainly have scared the living daylights outta me. Of course the first thing I thought ofwas: Black Mambo! Duh. But we don't have black snakes in my neck of the woods (So. Cal.), so...you know.
We do however have the Mojave Green, which is chiefly known for the distinction of it's poison being both a hemotoxin *and* a neurotoxin. Most snakebite deaths in CA are due to Mojave Greens.
