Defanging/ Devenomizing

[Will0W783]

I know...I can understand if you've been bitten or are trying to protect your family, but in most cases a snake would rather escape than waste its venom on you. I know there are cases where snakes are particularly aggressive, or your child is too close and killing it is the only way you can think of at the time. I was referring more to people who take a hatchet or shovel to every garter snake, milksnake, etc that they find in their yard.
