i have just watched a old video i have about rattlesnakes, its great until near the end when it deals with the roundup's, it is some years since i watched this video and i remember turning it off when it came to this barbarity, but this time i forced my self to watch, has any thing changed in the years since this piece was made? the late 1980's, i cant believe the stuff i was seeing, surely laws have been introduced to protect these snakes, apart from the snakes i watched petrol being pumped into holes to force out the rattlers with no regard for the lives of any other creature that shared that burrow i watched snakes being milked of venom in front of crowds as if it was a service to humanity, when according to the commentary it was of no value what so ever,
somebody please tell me things have changed
