Squirrel vs rattlesnake

I'll just say this... I have dealt with and captured all kinds of snakes for over 50 years now.. I know rattlers, if that snake was actually hungry, it would have been in an ambush position and the tree rat would have been toast.

That snake was just looking to get from point A to point B.. and the tree rat interrupted its travel. It wasn't looking to kill and eat, just move along.
