#RattlerChat Periscope Broadcasts

Rattlesnake looking at viewer & flicking his tongue

In September 2015, personnel from the Arizona Poison and Drug Information Center participated in three live Periscope broadcasts about rattlesnakes. Known as #RattlerChats, their purpose was to educate the public about the types of rattlesnakes, how to avoid being struck by a rattlesnake and what to do -- and not do -- if someone is bitten. Watch the videos (now on YouTube) below.

Episode One: Meet the Snakes
Episode Two: Serpentine Safety
Episode Three: After the Bite
