He said, &#8220;This was the seventh reported snakebite in Ventura County since mid-march, however \u2014 at least two of these have not occurred on hiking trails and hiking areas.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;While the total number of rattlesnake bites has increased for the same period as last year (we had 9 total in 2025) \u2014 it is still a very small number of the total calls we run here in the county,&#8221; he added. &#8220;Still, these are serious emergencies and traumatic for the people who experience them. We always encourage residents and visitors to call 911 immediately if they are bitten.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>While <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/california-mountain-biker-dies-after-month-long-hospital-stay-following-rattlesnake-bite\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">deaths from rattlesnake bites are rare<\/a>, they can cause pain and swelling around the bite site that can worsen and lead to severe tissue damage, according to Poison Control.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/world\/tourist-dies-luxury-resort-cobra-snake-climbs-pants-bites-police\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>TOURIST DIES AT LUXURY RESORT AFTER COBRA FROM SNAKE SHOW CLIMBS UP PANTS, BITES HIM: POLICE<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Depending on the species, the venom can also affect the blood\u2019s ability to clot, causing bleeding.<\/p>\n<p>Dowd told Fox News Digital that avid hikers should remain vigilant by making sure they are wearing proper clothing, including long pants, proper boots and gaiters. They should also avoid deviating from designated trails and steer clear of dense vegetation.<\/p>\n<p>If bitten by a rattlesnake, victims should stay calm, limit movement, call 911 and seek emergency medical attention, avoiding myths such as sucking out the venom or applying ice.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/hiker-airlifted-terrifying-rattlesnake-bite-remote-trail-incidents-surge-area\">Source &#8211; https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/us\/hiker-airlifted-terrifying-rattlesnake-bite-remote-trail-incidents-surge-area <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A hiker had to be airlifted to safety after being bitten by a rattlesnake while hiking a remote trail in Southern California.
