Rattlesnake season is here, and Colorado wildlife officials are urging extra caution on trails, in open spaces, and even neighborhoods. Prairie rattlesnakes can be found throughout our region, and encounters can happen fast—especially with curious pets.

Keep dogs leashed, avoid using earbuds while hiking so you can hear a warning rattle, and wear protective clothing. If you see a snake, slowly back away instead of stepping around it. And in the event of a bite, call 911 right away—venom can spread quickly and do serious damage, even if not usually fatal. Full Story
