A few quickies from West Texas/Arizona. Will do a full post of the snakes at the end of the trip - some real beauties this trip.

Most venomous snake in the Western hemisphere - Tiger rattlesnake…



Sonoran coral snake…



Northern black-tailed rattlesnake…



Ornate black-tailed rattlesnake…



Mojave rattlesnake…



Teaser shot - Madrean Mountain kingsnake from late last night - maybe my favorite catch ever!

I was always taught "red next to yella will kill a fella"

That one fits that description.

Yeah the Sonoran coral is the red touch yellow baddie, but the Mountain king has the red touch black. Both are two of the prettiest snakes I’ve ever caught!

My guy , if you look back from your earlier post till now , you keep letting them rattlers get closer and closer . Don’t get snipped because I absolutely love looking forward to all of your post and I’d hate for them to stop suddenly.

I noticed the same thing, particularly in the black tailed rattler pic

I’m retired with a broke back , but if I didn’t have two kids under the age of 5 I would be begging to tag along to catch them all . I’ve always been fascinated with snakes and was taught at a very young age to catch them but respect them at the same time lol . At this point in my life the biscuit is not worth the risk unfortunately. But I have mad respect for him !

You would have loved my wife’s uncle Bob. He had all kinds of venomous stakes he kept for getting venom. He had some pretty serious shite apparently.

The rattlesnakes where you are grabbing the last third of their tail is insane. Not even the end of the tail.

Pure crazy.
