The Mexican west coast rattlesnake is a large venomous pit viper. It lives on the coastal plain of western Mexico. It is one of the largest rattlesnakes in the world, so its size and its strong venom make it one to respect.1

Its habitat is mostly tropical thorn forest, extending into tropical deciduous forest. Around Colima, where it is particularly plentiful, the land is mostly treeless with short grass, scattered mesquite, acacias, thorny bushes and many large cacti. In the lowlands, most specimens are found crossing roads at night.1

Nsɛm

It is one of the largest rattlesnake species, and specimens over 150 cm are not uncommon.1

Young snakes are red, and they turn olive green as they grow into adults.1

Its scientific name comes from the Greek word for king, a nod to its size and strong venom.1

It hybridises freely with C. molossus where their ranges overlap.1
