Kilimanjaro Report post Posted November 12, 2008 I agree with Clay. Looks like a Prairie rattler. And you were in the right part of the state for them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CouesWhitetail Report post Posted November 15, 2008 It's an immature Arizona Black Rattlesnake aka Crotalus cerberus http://www.reptilesofaz.com/Snakes-Subpage...c-cerberus.html Crotalus is correct, it's a juv az black. I sent the pic to an AGFD biologist who really knows snakes and he concurred. Amanda Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WFGinNM Report post Posted November 15, 2008 After I read Amanda's thread and saw the link I guess I shoud be happy I might not see one on the next coues hunt in 36b or are they there too. last November I hunted Kodiak Island and didn't even think about sitting or stepping on a Kodiak Brown. I'm thinking these snakes might be a problem. Don't have to worry about them too much up here in the Jemez Mts. -Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
