Good gravy that things enormous. I wonder how much venom those fangs could pump into a victim. I’m assuming it would be exponentially more dangerous than your normal 3-5 footer.

Holy smoke, that’s a huge snake. It’s not only long but it’s fat too. I’ve killed several rattlers at my house but never one like that. I use a 410 to kill them, but I think it would take a 12 ga to kill that thing.

A mower hit one that that was about 7 ft. long on my school playground, when I was a kid. It was a diamondback but in southeast TX. ...didn’t know that there were subtypes (”eastern,” etc.). We were very accustomed to seeing snakes.

A big rattlesnake calls for a big firearm.

A very, very sharp sword works well on large snakes.But you only get one chance.

Look at the size of his fangs! They could go right through a small child's arm. Incredible!

Yep. After seeing the pictures, the ones that were around us in SE TX were western diamondbacks. ...been a long time except for some Army NG time in hot climates. :-) In tropical places, animals that bite or sting are pretty thick. ...don’t miss that or the heat and humidity at all.
