Read once that people in the Americas are having a detrimental hand in rattlesnake selection. When a snake rattles, the natural impulse is to kill it. Since not all species or individuals within a species rattle at the same rate, humans are inadvertently selecting for snakes that don’t rattle, which will eventually lead to more people being bitten.
