A lot has been going on in the past few months.

The attachment set up for our first snake, Teddy. The radio transmitter is the smaller unit attached with a fishing swivel behind the GPS.

It’s been a constant challenge finding rattlesnakes, solving logistical dilemmas, improving attachment techniques and more. But that’s not to say that nothing has been accomplished. In fact, I have made a good bit of progress and have fitted two rattlesnakes with GPS tracking devices. Check out the photos, video and article below if you’re interested in finding out more! And as always, feel free to contact me with questions, concerns and/or comments 🙂

Best, Alex
