Wayne, I would agree, Copperheads account for more cases of venomous snake bites than any other North American species. However, their venom is less toxic than the rattlers, so their bite is seldom fatal. Most fatal bites in North America are attributed to the Eastern and Western Diamondback rattlesnakes. Michigan only has 1 venomous snake, The Eastern Massasauga rattlesnake, and they are federally protected.

I will be using my new Bond Arms Derringer on 10 pins and water-filled milk Jugs.
