Last time I tangled with a rattler (little one--under 2 feet) we skinned it and cooked it...since its head was already off... <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" />
My fingers (and the web between) that handled the snake had a serious sloughing problem for about a week or so. Large amounts of surface skin peeling off, worse than a sunburn...I actually had to put bandages on to prevent further damage.
Don't like to bother snakes any more...
