Rattlesnakes are not the least bit poisonous and they can be eaten with no harm to the eater. However, they are quite venomous and any bite from any rattlesnake must be considered a medical emergency. With prompt medical treatment, the fatality rate from rattlesnake bite is quite low. Without treatment, the possibility of death increases considerably.
