Mojave Rattlesnake in a Peoria backyard!

- We don’t get calls for nearly as many of these as we do other species of rattlesnake, but I always enjoy them. Here is the dreaded “Mojave Green” rattlesnake - loved by hyperbole enthusiasts and loathed by the people who believe them. Just like most of the information out there in common culture about rattlesnakes, what you’ve probably heard about these snakes is unlikely to be accurate.

A mojave rattlesnake chased me, took my wallet, stole my girlfriend, and now lives in my house. And you know I respect him, that rattlesnake's living his best life.
a mojave rattlesnake ate all the bottles out of my recycling bin and called my mom a slut
😂
😂😂
I used to see these all the time when I lived in Hesperia, CA. Beautiful snakes.
Hesperia?
Living out west most of my life I’ve encountered hundreds of rattlesnakes. I hate snakes but love rattlesnakes cause my experience is they really just want to be left alone and not bothered…plus they warn you they don’t want to be messed with. Never encountered an aggressive one tbh. Respect!
I think alot of the caution with the Mojave is they are the most venomous type of rattlesnake. But this one seems docile, compared to other rattlesnakes I've seen. I grew up in Central Texas, full of Pacific and Diamondbacks and learned that for the most part, these rattlesnakes aren't here to bother anyone.. They just want their space, and I'd say most humans feel that way too. I've always found snakes to be beautiful, this Mojave is no exception. Great video
This was a very informative video. In my opinion, as long as we are careful where we step during a hike, we should be safe. I also purchased gaiters for the additional peace of mind for hikes with low visibility of the surroundings. Thanks Bryan.
I came across one of these on a bike trail at night in Havasu City. We met, said 'Howdy', and went our separate ways. It really knocked a lot of mystique out of me about any buzzworm's intentions.
I wonder if they sense fear in humans which would make it a bit more tense. You are familiar with them so basically know what to expect. I’m learning a lot from your channel. It’s interesting! Thanks for sharing.
When I lived in the Mojave Desert back in the mid 70's, the fear of these snakes, (as I was told) was because they were still so rare there was no anti venom developed for their bite. If you were bit from the chest up, your chances of survival were not very good. Now this was almost 50 years ago, so what do I know. I use to look for them, but never found one in the wild.
Fortunately, this is just one of the many myths about this species. They are very common in the habitat where they live, and BOTH of the antivenoms approved by the FDA for use in the US will work on this species.
My experience with these is they tend to stand their ground more than most other rattle snakes but never seen one chase you down the street lol
You’re the man! ❤️🐍
Gorgeous green!
Super educational vid! I spend a lot of time in the golden valley Arizona area and greens definitely occupy this region!
Lol your so smooth about grabbing them and then you get to the bucket. 😂 Beautiful Mojave and thank you again for your hard work and sacrifice you put in for our snakes.
Thanks! I always love when it ends up being a Mojave
The most fascinating characteristic of the rattlesnake is his scales, which, are so dense, they appear to be feathers. The timber rattlesnake is my favorite. Rattlesnakes have been given a savage indictment by Hollywood, right along with the wolf and shark. It's a shame.
Great video and advice! This my experience all the time catching and releasing these guys. I love them! ❤️😃🌵
A guy here in Pahrump had to be flown out to UMC in Vegas after being bit repeatedly by a Mojave Green rattler. He was walking to Dotty's in the middle of the night and found the snake sitting on the sidewalk, and tried to grab it by its tail and throw it into the desert... so that it wouldn't bite anyone. Lmao.
I heard Mojave rattlesnakes have more toxic venom than some of the other rattlesnake species.
Their venom is a blend of neurotoxin and hemotoxin, which attacks the nervous system while using the enzymes of the hemotoxin to breakdown the tissues for digestion. Time is of the essence when you’re envenomated by a Mojave.
They have a combination of hemotoxin and neurotoxin in their venom while most rattlesnakes have only hemotoxin in their venom.
Thanks! Always the education!
My technic with the Mojave is always be on the look out for them while walking. When one is seen I STOP 🛑 they usually will go on their way OR I redirect my route and LEAVE IT ALONE! Please don’t chop their heads off, these animals are part of the ecosystem
Beautiful snake!
Beautiful creature. Last fall I was fishing with my brother and walking a overgrown trail and happen to see a snake zip across the trail where almost stepped. Using my walking stick I parted the grass and the snake had coiled up under a bush. A couple minutes after showing my brother we started leave and that is when the snake started to buzz us. No aggressive moves towards each other. To me it seemed more like it was telling us he was bored with us and to go away. Don't know enough about them as far as what species of western diamond back that he was.
HEY, THANK YOU DUDE!!!!
This is the kind of video I would like to see more of. everybody out there messing with the snakes has earned my respect, but I really appreciate some easy to understand simple directions that will save your life and help you better understand these magnificent creatures.
crazy fact, I was petrified scared kind of stupidly hating snakes but after watching many of these videos I'm utterly infatuated!
Hey that's awesome! Glad to hear, and we'll definitely keep making more like this. Glad to know you're watching.
Thanks Brian for the demonstration..I'm very petrified of snakes and choose to live in climate that's cold 1/2 the year. I had always believed rattlesnakes were aggressive and would chase you. I am intelligent enough after watching your channel insessently to realize that rattlesnakes are more defensive than aggressive and only wanna get away. Thank you for what education you and your wonderful crew provide..just don't ask me to live in Arizona 😮😂❤
I had a Mohave in my North Scottsdale back yard. I had ASU pick it up. I thought it was. Diamondback until the guy showed me the greenish tinge.
By far, the most docile rattlesnake is the blacktail rattlesnake.
Thanks for the educational video
Great video
I was on my mail route one day in central Illinois in my Jeep. There was a snake in the road that I didn't see until I was right on it. I just bumped it and skined it up a little. But it was a green rattlesnake. The only thing I could think was that someone had let it loose. I almost picked it up because I didn't think anyone would believe me.
Mojave’s really are not much different than WDB. Definitely misunderstood. Love your videos!
Don't think i've Ever seen a WDB !
( or Have i ? )
How many mojaves do you think you GET calls about a year?
Thank you for your time educating us I have safely relocated 2 snakes in northwest AZ it has been a amazing experience instead of destroying iam doing my part in a karma kind of way my advice is too watch out for the two legged snake in the Mojave tell me we're I wrong God bless
beautiful snake
I'm from Arizona we had crap load of them down there
I love rattlers. Beautiful snakes
I'm thinking you are talking about Peoria, AZ and Not Peoria, IL Haha!! We have rattle snakes up here in Illinois..... I don't like to see them here... I'd rather watch your UA-cam videos>>> ;-) Haha!!
I was born and raised in Peoria Illinois I never saw anything besides a Gardner snake
Peoria was once the home of the state's biggest western diamondback. KOOL-TV (now Fox 10 KSAZ) had a slow news day one Sunday and so a story came in of a farmer at 99th Ave and Peoria having killed a 6-foot diamondback. Happened in about 1970, These days I think we know a lot better than to just kill them.
Tools. Better tools to capture and move.
Very helpful videoI enjoyed it.at leat ifiencounter one i know what to do.😀
He's gorgeous
Or better yet start releasing them in Washington DC
Why your mom lives there ?
There is plenty of snakes there already. We don't need anymore. 🤣🤣
Hey!! They might be relatives !! You know how Eve ate the apple 🍎!? Well , she procreated with Satan and created a reptilian hybrid race , who still torment us today! The children of Caan , Satan hate humans or Adamites . Unfortunately, they have been put in positions of power and a lot of the royal families
Enough snakes already there too. They took ove the capitol, lol 😂
Western diamond back looks like these guys!!
Sorry to bother with a weird question. But what is the biggest rattle snake in ur opinion from ur experience
Crotalus horridus, the timber or "canebreak" rattlesnake.
The Eastern DB is the largest bodied rattle snake. And it doesn’t have the ‘most potent’ (LD50) venom, but it delivers a huge venom yield, an average of something like 450mg. When it’s milked into a glass, it looks like an egg breaking! 😳
Merry Christmas and happy new year to all of you at rattlesnake solutions.
someone once told me that it was tapping the snake with a stick until the snake got really mad and chased this person for a while.
Someone told you some stories ;)
I seen them in wonder valley ,loud rattle fast runner.
I done seen'um in younder holler ...
If you’re on a trail and you had a snake sitting in the middle of it, and you couldn’t walk around it, how would you go about getting the snake the move?
So, it has to be said that this situation is much more rare than most expect, where moving around several feet is not an option. Of course it can happen, but that's always the best option. What I would do, especially if it's rattling, is just back off and get completely out of sight for 5-10 minutes. The snake will want to retreat to cover as soon as possible, and is likely only remaining in place because it does not feel it is a safe option to do so, especially if staying there and rattling seems to have done the trick of the predator (you, from its perspective) not eating it.

Nice common sense lesson in snake behavior!
Now we know they are in backyards in S Mesa 😊
Is that Peoria,Il
AZ
there was an old article in the waukesha freeman paper a while back that told about a doctor that came to milwaukee in the 1830`s and he stayed at his brother `s house before his final journey to waukesha and it said they got hungry so they shot some pigeons ( i bet they were passenger pigeons ) and also shot a rattle snake all to eat .
Only thing I've heard about Mojave is their venom is really bad news. Type A or B i think? IDK.
I wonder if a CO2 fire extinguisher might slow one down.
Is that Peoria Illinois or Peoria Arizona?
Peoria Az. Mojave rattlesnake. Like Mojave desert

Is there an email I can send a picture to for help with identification. Bumped into one today. I'm pretty fascinated with rattle snakes and am hoping to learn how to identify better.
The Mojave Rattlesnake has a Nuero Toxic Venom not a Hemo Toxic Venom,,,
Sometimes
People and their stories. Its just their venom thats unique and of course bad if you get a bite. Otherwise no different than any other California rattlesnake. From my experience.
The Governor supposed to have shut down the highway so these snakes would cross into the state borders of Illinois.
Their venom is very dangerous
I'm in avondale, if I see one in my house or yard I'm heading back home to michigan
They don't have snakes in Michigan?? I think they do!
Massasauga Rattlesnake
🙏👍
Just found one of these in Eastern Washington
We have no dangerous rattlesnakes in the eastern United States. In Alabama.
None in northern Minnesota either
Bullshit. The timber rattlesnake is located in the eastern part of Alabama. It is most certainly dangerous. Not an aggressive snake but packs a potent venom. The canebrake rattlesnake (southern timber) has two types of venom, type A and type B like the Mohave. With type A being primarily neurotoxic. If you don’t believe these snakes are dangerous try taking a bite from one of these snakes. Without seeking medical attention.
I personally have found that the Mojave is the most docile of the western rattlesnakes!
Qué espanto
You know what would be a good idea? Instead of just showing the removal of the snake do a little narration. For instance while on the way say you have a snake removal in a backyard in Peoria, it's a Mojave or whatever it is. Or I'm on the way to get a sidewinder that's in a pool. Or I'm heading out to grab a huge Diamondback, the homeowner says it's been messing with their dogs etc. By doing this you have the viewer getting excited to see the snake even more. I'm telling ya anticipation is everything. But love the content man!
Terrible venom, these guys.
It kill my 🐎
SHOTGUNS AND DYNAMITE!!
LOL! Fhuckin A!
Humanly of course.
Then pick it up..
Nope
Inez Qtaish dreamed Rochelle who calls herself precious, kids had electronic toys, Rochelle son electronic toy was wet, his electronic toy was still working, I wondered Rochelle son electric toy was working, I couldn't find my phone , I was certain Rochelle had something to do with my phone missing, I went outside ,it was raining outside , I seen my phone on the ground , my phone was soak and wet , the camera on my phone was wet, I seen reflections of silver , clear glass sparkling on my phone, my phone was soak and wet, I said" I wonder if I wondered if I put my phone on top of the heat will my phone dry out, I seen the heat blowing upwards and I woke up
I saw a video the other day "rattlesnake chases me and strikes"
You'll never guess, the snake was trying to get away into some brush and the person shooting the video stepped into the path of the snake. The snake proceeded towards them and then struck...far from a "chase". Just another idiot skewing the truth.
"Very pretty"...? Now I've seen a blue racer or garter that I thought was pretty, but rattlesnakes aren't what I would call "Pretty".
Keep looking
