Good luck with that! The one place I hunted the most was the mountain with the spots of the leopard.
What it was 20 years ago my not be the same. First trip if your brought a pistol you could carry it in towns. That changed the 10 years I hunted.
Some folks think that so many people get bit on the hands or arms because they are playing with snakes.
Aint so worried about the dawg, but rather how the wife would be freaked out! Her mom had a dog that didn't survive a bite so i know she would be freaking out.
Many years ago we bought our first house, a custom built, one owner on some property a doctor owned and subdivided. Doc still lived there and we had some good barbecues, fish fries and dove hunts together. He had an old lab or two that wandered the property. One day about dinnertime he came driving up the lane and I figured something was up. Sure enough the old lady lab was in the car, head about the size of a basketball. He wanted me to call my vet across the river and see if he would wait for us to bring the dog. On the way he said he thought she had weed poisoning and he was going to give her an antihistamine shot. I said maybe she had been snakebit but he disagreed. We got there and he repeated his story to the vet who had immediately proclaimed snakebite and showed us the fang marks with two little droplets of blood oozing out. When he got to the part about the antihistamine shot the vet said "could have killed her". Treatment wasn't much and we were to take her home and keep her quiet.
