It's not so much a concern for us hunting here in MN, but a lot of us will go to western states that have them. It's hard to find avoidance classes in this state since there isn't a large population of snakes. I'd bet that class was fairly full considering it's one of the few I've seen held around the St Paul area.There's rattlers in Minnesota?
Timber rattlers apparently, just looked it up. Hasnt been anyone bit in the wild since 96.
