One of these showed up in Austin the other day. It didn't last long; it was found next to MoPac (a major freeway) dehydrated. The owner had used it to commit suicide in a Lowe's parking lot.

Ho-lee-crap. That's a pretty dramatic statement - doing it at Lowes.

Had a 4 foot diamondback show up in a crate of parts from Mexico once. So much for international biosecurity.
Have any idea how hard it is to find somebody that will come and remove rattlesnakes in Canada?

Just remove rattlesnakes? Like how many?
Probably anyone from eastern Wa.

I grew up on a pear farm in the Chelan area. We were killing rattlesnakes pretty regularly before we were in high school, my little cousins and I. I'm sure we got at least a dozen every summer, just pinning their head with a stick then grabbing their tails and whipping them on the ground. I hope they weren't endangered or anything...

Speaking of suicides-I was walking home from school one day, in about 6th or 7th grade and saw a tow truck loading a 1980's era Camero or something along those lines. It had those lamb skin seat covers. I noticed there was a giant brown stain all over the driver's seat, sort of like a tie-dye shirt, as well as a bunch of liquid and broken glass on the floor. I stopped to watch because I was just a silly little kid and I couldn't figure it out. When I asked the tow-truck operator, he told me "that's what happens when people commit suicide in their car". I believed him.
