Notes
2nd snake in three weeks that I was called to free from netting. It has a few cuts from the netting, but will be ok.

I'm yet to remove a rattlesnake from netting, though. How do you do it with Copperheads? So far, every snake in netting has had the netting stuck in its mouth, and I have to open its jaws in order to work the netting out. Not sure how I would do that with a rattlesnake. I have snake restraining tubes so I could easily get the netting off the body, but not sure about the mouth on a venomous.
Wow I’m so glad they found you!! And now they’ll know about the dangers of netting. I’m a little jealous since I want to help some more California snakes out of netting too since I lived there most of my life. Although I do love helping copperheads out of netting too. :) Great work!!
