I understand it is a potentially deadly snake but that takes nothing away from that coloration being truly impressive.

White rattlers are non-aggressive. They only strike if messed with.

No more dangerous than any other rattler it’s size, with the exception of a Mohave which this snake is not. Rock rattlers tend to take on the color of their environment, the common diamond back will do the same just not to the same extreme. On the east side of the ranch the rattler have a red hue due to the red clay, on the west it’s more caliche and limestone, they’ll have whitish color.
