Unfortunately, there are some critters that just need shooting. Chief among these, in my opinion, are the nasty Mojave Rattlesnakes that inhabit these parts. They have an evil disposition and are known to chase folks who mess with them. Why mess with them, you ask? Well, because Mojave venom is a mixture of neurotoxin and hemotoxin. Think rattlesnake venom with a heavy dose of cobra venom thrown in for good measure. This potent brew has been known to kill within about 40 minutes. If you live in the country where getting to help in a hurry is a problem you can't afford to let Mojaves hang around your family or animals. They have to go.
