GBIFID: 910491327; Occurrence Remarks: The second Speckled Rattlesnake we had encountered in the late afternoon. Our class stumbled upon it while we had been searching the then flowing stream for signs of any amphibians. Some of my classmates decided to climb over the boulders that supported the embankment of the nearby trail, to reach the pools on the other side, when the rattlesnake alerted us to its presence. No harm came to either the rattlesnake, no to the classmates that panicked at the sound of the rattle, such as the girl that screamed and jumped off of the boulders in front of me.;; Coordinate Uncertainty in Meters: 15.00000.

Occurrence Remarks: 3 foot long Panamint Rattlesnake (Crotalus stephensi) in the Mojave Desert near Baker CA. Location obscured to help prevent poaching. Panamint Rattlesnake (Crotalus stephensi) is a venomous snake in the Vipers (Viperidae) family that grows up to 37 inches (943mm) in length. It is found in rocky desert foothills and canyons, occasionally on rock-strewn alluvial fans. It was formerly considered a subspecies of Speckled Rattlesnake (Crotalus Mitchellii).

A poisonous snake is one that is harmful to eat. A venomous snake injects dangerous venom into its victim. Rattlesnakes are important members of the natural community. They will not attack, but if disturbed or cornered, they will defend themselves. Reasonable watchfulness should be sufficient to avoid snakebite. Give them distance and respect. Rattlesnakes are also among the most reasonable forms of dangerous wildlife: their first line of defense is to remain motionless; if you surprise them or cut off their retreat, they offer an audio warning; if you get too close, they head for cover. Venom is intended for prey so theyre reluctant to bite, and 25 to 50 percent of all bites are dry - no venom is injected. Leslie Anthony. Snakebit: Confessions of a Herpetologist. Greystone Books, 2008. Irenes Vipers (Viperidae) family observations on INaturalist, worldwide: Vipers (family Viperidae) and Colubrid Snakes (family Colubridae) are reptiles in the Snakes (Serpentes) suborder. Vipers are usually heavier, slower, and built around powerful frontΓÇæfanged venom systems, while colubrids are generally slimmer, faster, and far more diverse, with most species lacking the specialized venom apparatus seen in vipers. Vipers are specialized venomous snakes with heavy bodies, broad triangular heads, and long, hinged fangs that fold against the roof of the mouth when not in use. These fangs allow them to inject venom deeply and quickly, and the venom is typically designed to immobilize prey by breaking down tissues and affecting blood flow. Their heads are distinctly wider than their necks because of large venom glands, and many species have heatΓÇæsensing pits between the eyes and nostrils that help them detect warmΓÇæblooded prey. Vipers tend to move more slowly and rely on camouflage and ambush hunting. They are found across the Americas, Africa, Europe, and Asia, but are absent from Australia and most oceanic islands. Colubrid snakes form a much larger and more varied family, including both harmless species and mildly venomous ones. Most colubrids have slender bodies, narrower heads, and short, fixed fangs located toward the back of the mouth if they have venom at all. Their venom delivery is far less efficient than that of vipers, and many species are completely nonΓÇævenomous. Colubrids rely more on speed, agility, and active foraging rather than ambush. Because the family is so diverse, they occupy nearly every habitat type worldwide except Antarctica, and they include racers, kingsnakes, garter snakes, whipsnakes, and many others. COMPARE TO Irenes Colubrid Snakes (Colubridae) family on INaturalist, worldwide: Colubrid Snakes (Colubridae) family: Colubridae is the largest snake family and its members are generally characterized by having slender bodies, smooth scales, and heads that are not distinctly wider than the neck. Most species possess large eyes with round pupils and lack specialized pit organs. Dentition is variable, with many species having rear-fanged structures used for subduing prey, though they are typically not dangerous to humans. They show great ecological diversity, occupying terrestrial, arboreal, and aquatic habitats. Unlike viperids and elapids, they do not have highly developed venom delivery systems, though some produce mild venom. Their hemipenes are usually simple compared to other families. They are oviparous or ovoviviparous depending on species, and their global distribution is wide, making them the most diverse and adaptable snake group. Most colubrids are non-venomous, or have venom that is not known to be harmful to humans, and are mostly harmless. Some colubrids are described as opisthoglyphous rear-fanged, meaning they have elongated, backward-facing grooved teeth in the back of their upper jaws.

GBIFID: 4091668652; Occurrence Remarks: I saw this juvenile-sized (maybe a couple years old) Panamint rattlesnake on the trail. As I was taking photos, I noticed there was a deceased long-nosed leopard lizard right in the middle of the trail (photo 2). There was an ant on the lizard. I picked it up with a stick and it was still squishy like it very recently died. I couldnΓÇÖt see any fang marks on the lizard, or any other injuries. However, because these two were in such close proximity to one another, I think the Panamint killed it or smelt it and was eyeing it as a meal. The Panamint was not as large as other ones IΓÇÖve seen, and it didnΓÇÖt rattle at me (I donΓÇÖt think it had too many rattle to even make a rattle noise) so that is quite the meal if it does eat it! I did not stick around to watch; the snake had curled up under a bush and I figured it wasnΓÇÖt going to do anything with me watching so I left. I have never seen something like this before, so it was sooo cool! The temperature at this elevation (3,500+ feet) was in the low 70ΓÇÖs and was a little breezy, making feel a little cooler. It was a great hiking day. Also: once the snake went under the bush, it was hard to get both in one photo.

I wasnΓÇÖt expecting to see any snakes tonight, the coolest temperature IΓÇÖve seen a snake at this summer is 74 degrees. And then... I saw a snake in the middle of my lane, stretched out perpendicular to me and crossing the road. I was able to straddle over it, and immediately turned around to go see what kind of snake it was. When I drove back, I didnΓÇÖt see it, and I even parked and looked on the road. I didnΓÇÖt see it, so I got back in my car and then with one last look, shined my flashlight over the road from within my car and saw a little balled up snake in the middle of the lane! I got out and slowly approached it. I thought maybe it was a boa or glossy snake based on the light color. Then upon a closer look, IΓÇÖm like ΓÇ£A PANAMINT!!!!!ΓÇ¥ Sorry for no comparison, but it was about a foot long, and had a few buttons - enough to make a rattling sound. Anyways, I grabbed my hiking stick to try and move the snake off the road and it just wasnΓÇÖt working. My stick is too thick around. And a car was coming, so I did my best to get the snake over to the bike lane and then I jumped in my car, so that I was not in the road, put my head down and prayed it wouldnΓÇÖt get hit. The car slowed down beside me and parked, with a German Shepherd riding shotgun. The older gentleman driver inside asked, ΓÇ£is everything okay?ΓÇ¥ I shined my flashlight out and saw the baby snake was curled up, uninjured. I said, ΓÇ£Yes, everything is okay. There is a baby rattlesnake right here that IΓÇÖm trying to move.ΓÇ¥ The man says, ΓÇ£Really? A baby snake? Did I run it over?ΓÇ¥ I reply, ΓÇ£No, it is safe. Do you have anything to help me move it?ΓÇ¥ And he says, ΓÇ£Yes I do! I will help you.ΓÇ¥ And he pulls over in front of me and brings a yardstick out!!!!! :D Relief flooded over me at this point. I grabbed my hard covered notebook out of the passenger seat and gave it to the man and he flipped the snake onto my notebook and put the yardstick behind the ΓÇ£shouldersΓÇ¥ of the snake then I held a flashlight and we moved it off the shoulder of the road!!!! We must have shook eachotherΓÇÖs hands 5 times, thanking eachother for saving the snake, and me thanking him for pulling over and helping me. We ended up talking on the side of the road for awhile about all our wildlife stories. It was so awesome!!!!!;; Coordinate Uncertainty in Meters: 28563.00000.

I have driven Dantes View Road and Greenwater Valley 10-15 times beginning last summer looking for snakes and have never seen a Panamint rattlesnake there until today, and I havenΓÇÖt seen 1 Panamint sighting on iNaturalist in this area either so this was a cool find. (ThereΓÇÖs probably a lot out there but just not that many people come to Death Valley to use iNaturalist.) Anyways, 65 degrees at 8:29pm around 4,500 - 5,000 feet elevation and cooling off quickly, as I drove away and down the hill it got down to 63. 65 is the coldest temperature IΓÇÖve seen a snake out at, in Death Valley.
