Logger Loses Award for Timber Site Snake Bites

     (CN) - A logging company is not liable to a worker who suffered debilitating bites from a diamondback while trying to catch the rattlesnake near his job site, an Alabama appeals court ruled.     Mercy Logging, formerly known as Perritt Logging, sent a four-man crew to a job outside Brewton, Ala., on Sept. 24, 2009. As the crew drove back to the service station that evening, crew foreman Aaron Perritt spotted a 6-foot-long diamondback rattlesnake and prepared to run it over.
