Once about twenty years ago I chopped a water snake to smithereens thinking I
was killing a water moccasin. Cause quite a stir in the neighborhood and one
teenager named Todd informed me that we do not have poisonous snakes in SW
OH. I didn't take his word for true, and feeling a little guilty I did the
research at the library and even called the local nature preserve. They all
assured me that we have no snakes that are poisonous local. Now I find the
opposite is true. Well, I can say at least this, been here for twenty-three
years and been hanging with the boyscouts for the last nine years and have
never seen or heard of anyone seeing a rattlesnake. I am going to keep my
hopes up. N.
