Goal
You can Adopt-a-Rattlesnake to help pay for humane relocation of rattlesnakes on the Central Coast from people's property to safer habitat. CCSS provides services to reduce negative interactions between rattlesnakes and people, including relocation of rattlesnakes from people's property. We charge a fee for this service, because unlike firefighters and police, we are a private company and do not receive tax dollars. Our fees cover the mileage and our time for providing the valuable service to our community. Some people who find a rattlesnake in their yard cannot afford to pay for our relocation services, which might mean that the person chooses to kill the rattlesnake. Not only is this bad for the snake, but many snakebites occur when people are trying to kill snakes. Your donation will help promote the well-being of local rattlesnakes and the safety of people and their pets.
