The Spousal Unit has a Lady that works for her and the Ladies Father passed on to the next plane last week and she went up to clean up the house for a Estate Sale. She said her 79 yr old Mom screamed and grabbed a Shotgun and sent these 3 to a untimely demise. Salty Lady in Oklahoma

Yikes for sure. I'm not tryin' to play internet police but it's illegal to kill Timber Rattlers in Texas, not sure about Oklahoma. Personally, I would have done the same thing. People, dogs, and snakes don't play well together.

Nothing prohibits the control of reptiles other than those listed as endangered or threatened, by landowners, lessees, or occupants of such land when such reptiles are creating a nuisance.

The following reptiles are legal to harvest from March 1 – June 30, only with no daily limit: prairie rattlesnake, western diamondback rattlesnake, timber rattlesnake and massasauga.

per Oklahoma Hunting Guide

Only the non venomous snakes get to live, unless one scares the heck outta me. Then it's dead.

I don't think the little ole granny took the time to think whether or not any of these critters were protected or not. In the end, they weren't protected from her.
