If the "attractive nuisance" doctrine applies to 4 ft unfenced swimming pools, I'm pretty sure it would apply to a 4 ft unfenced pool filled with rattlesnakes, cottonmouths, and copperheads.

From Nolo:
"attractive nuisance: Something on a piece of property that attracts children but also endangers their safety. For example, unfenced swimming pools, open pits, farm equipment and abandoned refrigerators have all qualified as attractive nuisances."
