a word of warning though, since they do feed on rattlers as everyone has been saying, you will want to avoid the bite of a king, since some of the venom will be left in the jaws of the king if he has recently dined on rattlers.
Thanks Oolie for the heads up. I can promise you that my wife will stay zoom lens length away and I'm sure my son will also. I'm just glad that our dog did not notice the snake as it slithered about 6" behind her. She would have taken after that snake no doubt.
