DNR: Leave Michigan's only venomous snake species alone

from WWJ: On-Demand

The Michigan Department of Natural Resources (DNR) says they've been seeing an increase in poaching, harassing, even killing of the Eastern Massasauga Rattlesnake. This comes after a rattlesnake bit a man in Oakland County late last month. DNR Endangered Species Biologist Amy Bleisch spoke live with WWJ's Christina McDaniel about the rare, threatened species.
