Recognizing These Natural Disaster Warning Signs Will Save Your Life

Maraca Sounds in Nature

Snakes don’t typically like attacking anything that it can’t eat. Venomous snakes regularly lose their teeth when they are forced to defend themselves from larger creatures, they also have a difficult time producing more venom to hunt their prey. If you hear a muffled rattling sound, almost as if someone is shaking a maraca near you, freeze and try to locate the sound. If you can hear where the rattlesnake is, slowly walk away from it without making any sudden movements. Rattlesnakes are not aggressive creatures unless provoked, so as long as you heed its warning, you shouldn’t have to try and find any anti-venom.
