사실

It is a pit viper, a family that includes all rattlesnakes, and it is the only venomous snake in Ontario.1

Mothers and newborns stay together for a few days, until the young shed their skin for the first time.1

Females often do not breed every year, usually having a two-year breeding cycle.1

Its populations have declined so much that it has disappeared from many of its former areas, and now survives mainly in small, isolated groups.1
