But even in this story, the reporter does not get it.
Wrong. The snakes haven't "learned" shit. The ones which rattle are killed....remember most of the assholes out here walk around with guns.. and the ones which do not rattle survive to breed.
THAT is all the advantage that evolution gives. It doesn't think. It doesn't teach. It doesn't learn lessons. What works survives to pass its genes along to the next generation and what does not work dies out.
No gods. No direction.

Quote:Steve Reaves, owner of Tucson Rattlesnake Removal, said rattlers have stopped rattling in recent years in order to avoid being killed.
"Normally when a rattlesnake announces its presence, people kill it," Reaves said. "The snakes that aren't genetically predisposed to rattling are the ones that are left to breed. They rely on their natural camouflage and stay still so predators won't notice them. Basically what's happening is we're breeding a rattlesnake that doesn't intend to rattle."
