I eat them even though I hate them too. Usually toss them in gumbo when cooking for guests - good conversation starter!
I don't miss being outdoors in LA. My dog was bit a few years ago in the Angeles National Forest (even being snake avoidance trained ...) It was ugly, don't take rattlers lighthearted. They will mess you up big time. Easy to lose a limb or die if far from help. Good news is that they generally try to avoid you. Mostly adolescent guys that get bit because they mess with them.
I almost stepped on one up here in NorCal deep in the wilderness out hunting. Shudder to think what would have happened to me ...
