Dont EVER post locations for pitvipers in new england on a website EVER. I didnt say where I was for that reason. You sound like you have good intentions but that is tremendously irresponsible. Dont even tell your FRIENDS. ONe person tells another person who tells a guy who wants an adrenaline rush. I happen to know where all the known dens are in MA, and not a single one is safe. because of people. Ive found headless carcasses at even the most remote locations.

I get paid to study them and it bugs the hell out of me when even good intentioned people post this kind of stuff on the internet so idiots can find them. even idiots who like snakes kill them by pinning them, grabbing gravid females, disturbing their delicate routines, etc.

Sorry if I come off as mean, but really, we are down to the last few snakes. I work too hard to see this stuff made more public than it is.

If a moderator see this PLEASE delete the above post.
