Translocation Rattlesnake Management And Conservation Study
This study looks at rattlesnake management utilizing translocation of nuisance rattlesnakes to
areas where they are considered less harmful to humans. The effects of translocation can be
looked at from two possibilities - one, translocatiing the wildlife to a location far from where
they were found, or two, moving the wild animal to an area just a short distance from their original location.
This study as published in the Journal Of Wildlife Management focuses on the effects of short distance relocation
on nuisance Western Rattlesnakes, including the probability that the rattlesnakes may try to return to their original habitat.
