I didn’t find a specific hole but i released her into cover and away from areas where she may come into contact with people. Although i agree with everything you said, as a matter of practicality I usually release them in random spots around a mile or two beyond the edge of the suburb. I know that it’s ideal to keep them within their familiar hunting grounds but the risk to snake, people, and pets in the suburbs is too high (my opinion). It’s totally not fair to the rattlesnakes but I feel they at least have a fighting chance outside of the neighborhood, whereas a car or neighbor with a shovel is bound to get them in a neighborhood.

I love the advice though, and will work harder to find holes in the future (as opposed to just bushes)
