I was bitten by a Rattlesnake Fern once, damn things are vicious!  I would
suggest a couple of things to you Eliot as a new Herb Hunter.  First, take
the state Herb Hunter's safety course and next, build several 3 story
freestanding "Tree Stands" and a shotgun will just get you killed (not
enough fire power).  Use a 7 mm magnum, minimum.

There was a 1950's documentary where an "Herb" from outer space attacked a
weather station in Antartica. Not knowing which sub-species it was they just
called it the "thing".  You might do well to view that and act acordingly
when in pursuit of the willey plants.
