While out shredding yesterday evening in preparation of the good Lords Holy day of September first I apparently shredded this rattler in half. After completing my chores I was checking on some water I had going and stumbled across the back half of the snake. I looked up and saw the front half crawling away like no big deal. This was at least 10 mins after I got done shredding. When approached the front half was still very much alive and even struck at me a few times. I went ahead and and properly finish off this spawn if satan grin For perspective this should have been about a 2 and half foot prairie rattler.

To be sure of hitting the target, shoot first and call whatever you hit the target.

Have found large parts of Rattlesnakes in Square Bales (loading them from the field) before....but never anything still alive.

Pretty wild.

Maybe it was on PCP.
