What do you do with them? Do you cook them all? Or Do you freeze any?

Freeze most for sure.
Gut, clean, fillet, vacuum seal and pack the freezer.
Definitely smoke also.
Hahahaa.
The funny thing is I've done something like that before.
I'd never steal a trail cam. But I will moon one.

Did you burn it?
No. I did kill it though.
I walk around barefoot quite a bit - fuck stepping on one of these.
First time I've ever spotted one.

Me and the battle axe went bird watching on the kayak, we saw loons fishing, ospreys nesting, and a great blue heron fight
my gods it was exhilarating

"Look, If I could run across the beach into my own arms, I would."
We supposedly have those here too, but I've never actually seen one. I collect endangered invertebrates as part of my job (I'm fully permitted to do so!) , so I would have grabbed my shit and pickled that bad boy in ethanol
Check this fella out....
For as much as I hate snakes, these are pretty cool looking. It is also not all that common to run in to them, at least in my experience. They're around, but more generally secretive and less "fuck you, bitch" aggressive like the rattlers.

Odd that it took me until I was 87 years old to see one. And here you are - an avid outdoorsman - and you've yet to see one.
Odd indeed.
Fuck that noise.
Generally, I agree. I'm like Indiana Jones when it comes to being around snakes. But working with biologists for a couple decades now has lowered my intolerance levels, and I can appreciate them more now. 15 years ago, I would've killed it on reflex. No I'm happy to leave them be if they do the same. Rattlers are the assholes though, corals are generally mellow and want to get the hell away from you.
I don't kill snakes. I leave them be. I just don't like them.
The only poisonous ones we have up here are copperheads, and those aren't really that poisonous.
Where I camp in KY they have timber rattlers but I've only seen one in my 85 years.
Dang you are handsome.
So is your father.
Where the heck is that?
I thought corals were in like Arizona....or Madagascar....or Venus.
The western diamondbacks can be aggressive, they'll actually come at you and hold their ground. We often run into them in caves during the cooler months, and that sucks a big one. These are often not walking passage caves, you're belly crawling. So that was always a "if it's going to be one of us, it's gonna be him" thing for me. For the most part I let them be now, but if I get one of those fuckers that keeps coming at me I have no issue taking it out.
Central Texas, just north of Austin. Some people have said that it's very close to Venus here.
Do you carry antivenom with you?
Negative. It is also outrageously expensive from what I hear. And snake bite kits are bullshit. If you get bit, the best thing to do is get to the ER immediately. And try to keep your heart rate down as much as possible.
