Beach? Sounds good! Rattlesnakes? Hard no ...

This year the period began on July 3 and will continue all the way through Wednesday, August 11.

Zoologists and wildlife officials have been dumping more snakes into our forests in an effort to increase their population numbers in the wild!

This story sounds like something straight out of a nightmare.

In advance of Halloween, I recently asked a simple question on my personal Facebook page and was blown away at some of the responses. The question was, "What scares you?" And while a lot of the answers were pretty common, some were off the wall!

Rusty Scarborough with the Caddo Parish Parks and Recreation Department stopped by the 710 KEEL studio this morning, and he brought a couple of "friends" with him - two live snakes!

When we interviewed Texas Snake Man Jackie Bibby about his appearance at Sportsman's Expo and he mentioned a stunt involving laying in a sleeping bag full of snakes, we thought...well, we believed him.
