...on this motherf*in' island!
BOSTON (CBS) — The Department of Fisheries and Wildlife wants to make a Quabbin Reservoir island home to the venomous timber rattlesnake, which is indigenous to the state.
Gov. Charlie Baker is now on board for using the unpopulated island for that purpose. He calls the project “fairly short money” at a few hundred thousand dollars, and said he thinks it’s important to preserve indigenous species.
“By creating a colony on an island like that, they are far less likely to run into people who are on the trails and working their way around Quabbin reservoir than they would be if we did nothing,” said Baker.
