Whoa! I've never even see a rattlesnake... if you back away when they rattle at you I assume you should be pretty safe right?

Yeah. Rattlesnake attacks on humans are pretty rare where I live and people dying is even rarer.
They generally want to avoid us like we want to avoid them and they rattle to let us know they are there.
So, you should be okay if you back away. I think I read they can jump 2 or 3 feet from coiled position. :/ Heh.
That's good to know. I'm happy to leave them well enough alone.
