IA Born Report post Posted June 20, 2013 Looks like a lot of prairie rattlesnakes in there, which would go along with the mass denning. I used to study Mojaves and they aren't known for mass denning behavior. There are prairie rattlesnakes in far SE Arizona (in grasslands near Douglas), close to the border, but I don't think they are in great numbers, if memory serves me correctly. I know I spent a great deal of time trying to find a prairie down near Douglas while I was collecting Mojaves. Never did find one. That kind of denning is very typical in Texas with both prairies and western diamondbacks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IA Born Report post Posted June 20, 2013 I did see a Prairie Rattler up in 12BW a couple of years ago but was unaware of any down near Douglas. Up in 12BW would be a former subspecies of prairie rattlesnake. Most likely a Great Basin rattlesnake (Crotalus oreganus lutosus). They used to be a subspecies of the western (prairie) rattlesnake group, but were found to be genetically different several years ago. And I looked it back up, true prairie rattlesnakes have been found in AZ near Springerville and are rumored to be in Cochise Co. near Douglas. I was always looking for them to document their presence when I was doing my research on Mojaves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
