A rattlesnake was discovered inside the Tractor Supply Co. store in Rio Grande City, prompting a warning from the local animal control department. As temperatures rise, more snake sightings are expected, particularly during mating season when male rattlesnakes are more active. Animal control officer Lt. Daniel Treviño advises residents to secure their homes by covering holes in walls and foundations. If a rattlesnake enters a home, he recommends keeping a safe distance until help arrives, as the snakes are generally not aggressive. Local rancher Eduardo Marquez emphasizes the importance of being vigilant during this season when snakes are more prevalent.
