You have an aggressive rattlesnake that stands it's ground.

@MHo: I don't know where you got the "feel the vibrations,"
from but I damned near stepped on it. I was about two paces from it
when it reared up and challenged me. If it had not caught that
movement in my peripheral vision, I would probably be at my Vet right
now.

Hmmm, that would be "stood."

If it won't ever do it again then the problem is gone away.
Or would that be "went"?
