The head of a dead rattlesnake can sense things, flick its tongue, and still bite you with poisonous venom.

EVEN IF the head was cut off,
A rattlesnake can still bite you.
If it died less than 1hour ago.

And that venom can kill you in 6hours.

If you see a dead snake,
Just run.
This is what a rattlesnake looks like.
Check these.

But if I were you,
I wouldn’t see a snake- dead or alive-
And be trying to do an interview to ask:
“Are you a rattlesnake?”

Please if you see a snake,
Wether it is dead or alive,
Talk to your legs,
And do the needful.

Run o.
Someone even said, it depends on the location the rattlesnake bites you.

Death could be faster,
The venom can kill less than 6 hours, depending on the body part bitten:
Legs- about 6 hours
Hands- about 4 hours
Shoulder/Neck- about 2 to 3 hours.

Please just be careful out there.
