Don't forget scorpions. At least a rattlesnake usually warns you.

the snakes dont always rattle-------------over the years they have evolved to know they die if they do so now lots of the prairie variety won't make a noise unless you hear it crawling across a weed or when it coils



also don't forget the spiders that live in that part of the world --------big and they bite as hard as the scorpions
