Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Rattlesnake Roundups
Hey everyone! I would like to hear some opinions on the roundups. I do not agree with them, but I also have never been to one. There is one in Sweetwater, TX next weekend and I am thinking of checking it out.

My own opnion is that it is fine for me to call whoever I need to call to 'round up' rattlers in my back yard (I have never seen one in my back yard, btw, but if I should I would want it to go elsewhere); and theoretically to remove rattler populations from private properties and from public areas like schools and parks where small children play.
I have seen where some farmers have suffered harm from bites and it should be their prerogative to keep their own areas safe for themselves and their families and livestock. But I see no sense in going out and butchering the wild populations of these snakes.
Here are some past opinions:

i agree, round-up's are making less and less of the native crotalid's species dissapear. thus i would like to have them banned. i did enter in a atrox sacking contest which i also think should be banned. not only for the safty of the ppl doing it but the over all stress on the animals. thanks

Shaun, I realize this is a year old, but did you go? If so, what did you think?
I have my own opinion on these roundups, but since I have never been to one, I'll hold my tounge for now.
