Rattlesnakes are territorial and hibernate during the winter. As the weather warms, they come out to gather heat from the sun. During the hottest months of the summer, they hide under brush, wood, and rocks to escape the heat of the day and become more active during the mornings and evenings. It has been very busy this year with an excess of rattlesnake bites and attacks on pets. In fact, at Animal Health Services we see so many snake bite patients in our urgent care that we have pledged to always have rattlesnake antivenin in stock!
