Twin-spotted Rattlesnake vs. Tiger Rattlesnake
Their ranges barely touch in the Santa Rita Mountains. A: Two rows of small dark spots on grey, joining into one row near the tail in the Twin-spotted Rattlesnake; many thin dark crossbands in the Tiger Rattlesnake. B: Broad, with a dark stripe behind the eye in the Twin-spotted Rattlesnake; very small for the body in the Tiger Rattlesnake. Both Ridge-nosed and Twin-spotted Rattlesnakes are protected in Arizona. Venomous: leave rattlesnakes alone and give them room.
