Be Aware - Rattlesnake killers on the loose

As a volunteer for the Laguna Coast Wilderness Park, I received this notice today:

For your information Park visitors have reported several incidents of rattle-snake killing and the removal of the rattles at Aliso & Wood Canyon. Visitors have reported finding the snakes thrown to the side of trail with rattles removed.


Anyone who sees suspicious activity should immediately report it to our park rangers. It is our common duty to protect, preserve and enhance our natural surroundings - we are all connected, and our well-being is dependent on the well-being of everything else around us - and that includes the rattlesnakes!
