Everyone is trying to escape the heat, even rattlesnakes. A fisherman sent the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department a video of how he saw a diamondback rattlesnake swimming on O.H. Ivie Lake near San Angelo back in April.

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.Yes, and when they are swimming over a body of water, rattlesnakes actually hold their rattles up in the air. Over 50 years ago, I was fishing in a lake in central Florida and saw a snake swimming some distance away, holding its trail up above the surface. I rowed over to investigate, and it was a 4 and 1/2 foot rattler. I killed it with an oar, hooked it with a lure and drug it back to shore behind the board. I when skinned it, and cured the skin. My youngest daughter still has the skin today.
