WOW...what an idiot. Hope he recovers though.

I keep and breed snakes......Everyone knows not to tie and drag a snake behind your bike.....You stuff him the saddlebags till you get him home.

Hey, maybe a buddie tied it on there as a joke and the rider happened to notice it and freaked

That tool almost killed himself for a skin. When i was a kid we use to catch them and sell them to a lab that milked them for $10 each. A few made it to the smoker. Found a few albino king snakes which we sold to pet shops. Hunt alligators with a baseball bat in a canoe in Algiers canal and jug fish for gar. We would swim in the same canal all summer. I also trawled, ran gill nets,crab pots,fished and drudged oysters. Hunting squirrel and rabbit was another pastime along with riding 3 wheelers. Growing up in south Louisiana provided me with an interesting childhood.

Do Rattlesnakes have nipples? Cause you can milk anything that has nipples

If it was tied on as a prank, I bet his "buddy" already feels like an a$$. I bet he has already moved out of state.

That's funny. Growing up in New Orleans a block from City Park, I remember gators, cottonmouths, copper heads, even a few coral snakes, and lots of non-poisonous snakes. I just don't remember ever seeing a rattle snake in the city. Lots of them camping on the north shore of Lake Pontchartrain though.
