Rattlesnakes in California bite around 800 people annually, with two fatalities. They are not limited to rural areas but also exist near urban locations like rivers, lakes, and golf courses.
Safety tips include wearing protective gear while hiking, avoiding areas where snakes may hide, not handling freshly killed snakes, teaching children to respect snakes, and seeking emergency assistance if bitten.
