Huge Texas Rattler

Recommended Posts

Now that's one worth grabbing. Holding him alive would be a huge rush. I wonder if there's one like that here.

Ive seen the just about as big in NM when I was a kid. Usually we would find the big ones like that on Easter morning, or at night in the monzano mountains.

pretty sure part of it is illusion by depth of field .... Lots of these pics where they are holding it way forward making them look 3 = 4 times bigger than they are

I don't know for sure. They showed another pic of the rattles, that were about 6" long.

years ago there was 1 (skin) in jake's corner before it torched was over 6 ft..... it was huge.

eastern diamond backs get bigger... I believe in the 50's there was 1 measured 7' something... unless he's 4' tall that thing is an illusion.

no 8' + rattlers

even at 3' I hate em though... nothing gives the heebeegeebees like those things!
