Emily Taylor has lived in California for 20 years and has never gotten as many calls about rattlesnakes as she did last month.

Taylor owns Central Coast Snake Services, a serpent consulting business, directs the Physiological Ecology of Reptiles Laboratory at Cal Poly San Luis Obispo and is part of a network of volunteers who help ethically relocate rattlesnakes into the wild.
