Love to see the herps getting appreciation rather than condemnation. Driven through Arizona twice and loved it. Wouldn’t mind living there. Time to retire.
Heat can become unbearable in the summer months. But if you've got plenty of money to keep the swamp cooler running, you'll be ok.
Excellent and very detailed video on this subject.
Arizona Blacks have been found as low as Roosevelt Lake, the dog found one under a work truck one night and one was dead on the road a half mile east of Government Hill (for employees that worked the power plant below the actual dam). But they have been seen in forests about 5k feet too. The one on the road was as gray as the road (seal coat with gravel) and looked like the lighter one in the video but more gray.
Yes, the one that I found was very near Roosevelt Lake.
The stripe pattern is a better indicator for the Mohave than the color, and that's not the best way either. Most people will confuse the Blacktail as most of those have a greenish to yellow tint to them. Nice video collection. I've yet to see the Prairie and Speckled.
Good observation about confusing a mohave with the blacktail if solely based upon the color. Some mohave rattlesnakes will not have enough color differentiation and can easily be mistaken for a western diamondback.
Arizona’s rattlesnake diversity is why I want to move there. That and the cactus. Love those AZ atrox. And the Mohave’s are amazing there too. I like them better there than the ones you see in West Texas. I always look to the raised supraocular scales to help with telling the difference between atrox and scutalatus.
For some reason the viridis and atrox are my 2 faves.
Mojave's just look different than W. Diamondbacks. It isn't easy to describe but after you have seen several of each you can just tell...most of the time.
I love the cactus too!!
Interesting creatures
😂 🙄🤥 We live next to Tonto National Forest and have loads of rattlers. My crazy fisherman brother thinks ALL of them are Mojaves (they're almost always diamondbacks) and ALL of them are 6 ft long (they're generally 2-4 ft).
Must have been fun as a cowboy sleeping at night
❤❤❤I love Rattlesnakes im South American and I have 5 Rattlesnakes as children not pets I love them too much to be pets ❤❤❤
Why is there sometimes a bright green ring by the rattles?
Did you see that in my videos or out in nature?
Great pictures, good info. I had to turn it off, though, I couldn't take the monotonous music.
Where are they hiding? Under rocks? In the bush? Are they active during the day?
There are lots of different answers. It depends on the time of year and location. Rattlesnakes are down at the lowest elevations and up to near 11,000 feet in elevation. They can bu under rocks, in crevices, hidden in bushes or out in the open. They can be active during the day in the cooler months or late into the night in warmer months.
lol dont liston to hem they get big here in kingman we got a bigger and bader new kind of them kind the one i got hes head was as big as a palate long as a car
How long did it take you to find all these to make the video?
Photos and videos come from observations from probably a 15 year period. Of course I did not show all of the animals that I found during that time. Just a few of each type.
Beautiful creatures but definitely ones you have to be careful around.
Yes, give proper respect and keep a safe distance and observe.
@@sonoranherpingadventures Rattlesnakes and some of the other danger noodles here seem like they mostly want to be left alone and that attacking is their last resort.
As long as u respect them
Ur more likely to get killed by a human being in Phoenix than a snake in the desert.
@@imnotagamer22 True. If you show respect to nature and understand its power you have a better chance at survival.
PRETTY SURE YOU NEED PERMITS TO HERP IN ARIZONA THESE DAYS...WHERE ARE YOURS ??
Permits? For taking pictures of wildlife? No, you don't. If you want to handle or collect the animals, then you just need a simple hunting license - except for the animals that are protected. Show me your badge and I'll show you my license.
Welp... found 4 today (black diamond)...
Cheeky suckers...almost got me
Do you mean Arizona Black Rattlesnakes, or some other kind?
@@sonoranherpingadventures black timber rattler
@@maytronix7201: Timber Rattlesnakes don’t have diamond patterns. They have chevrons.

Yes to content, HARD NO to icky, aggressive electric incidental music!
We use a variety of genres of music.
I don't like spiders and snakes. That's why I live up in the mountains and have guinea fowl
There are snakes in the mountains up to over 10,000 ft in elevation. But they are interesting and useful animals.
@@sonoranherpingadventures Only snakes I've seen in the last couple of years have been gopher snakes.
Beautiful. But man they scare the hell out of me
