rattle snake 1

Baby rattle snake 2

This baby rattle snake was only about 12 inches long.

Did you notice her purple tongue?

This little snake is to young to make the very helpful "rattle" sound to warn you that you are in danger. But, she can still bit of she is scared. And even though she is small she is poisonous.

Did you know?

Rattlers get a new rattle segment each time the snake sheds its skin which is normally about 3-4 times per year.
Baby rattlesnakes are born with only one segment on their rattle called a button.
The rattle is noiseless until the baby rattler sheds its skin for the first time and adds another segment to the button.
The rattle makes noise when the segments click against each other.
