Nathan Hawkins, who owns Big Country Snake Removal, removed 45 western diamondbacks from a home near Abilene, Tex.
By Lindsey Bever Lindsey Bever General assignment reporter covering national and breaking news Email Bio Follow March 20 at 2:38 PM Nathan Hawkins slithered into a shallow crawl space beneath a home in North Texas, armed only with a flashlight, a pair of long snake tongs and a cellphone camera.
The footage showed a rattlesnake den hidden under a home outside Abilene, less than 200 miles west of the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Hawkins later explained that during the winter, these communal creatures will often congregate where they can find warmth, then emerge in the spring to forage for food and breed.
“It was just another day, honestly,” he told The Post, adding that the most he has ever removed from a person’s home was 88 snakes.
