The town Opp, Alabama is gearing up for its annual Rattlesnake Rodeo.

The event draws tens of thousands to the tiny Alabama town.

Rattler wranglers are currently busy scooping up enough snakes for the event.

Snake hunter Chuck Brooks says this year's warm winter weather kept the snakes on the move, which also means they aren't as easy to find this spring.

Most have already left their hiding spots.

Organizers say dozens of huge rattlers will be on display during the rodeo.
