  • Cottonmouth Snake Facts

    225 Words  | 1 Pages

    For the 6th writing, I have decided to list five facts about cottonmouth snakes or Agkistrodon piscivorus.

  • How Does The Author Create A Sense Of Empathy In The Rattler

    1239 Words  | 5 Pages

    Rather than portray the rattlesnake as a vicious and offensive creature many associate them as, the author chooses to highlight a different side: a rational and defensive one.

In their first encounter, the man describes that the snake “held his ground in calm watchfulness [and] was not even rattling yet.” For whatever reason the snake continues to remain calm, this is more of a rational approach to assessing a threat by choosing to see what the man will do next. The author most likely chooses to show the snake’s characteristics as such so it can be considered when debating the decision of taking his life.
