Prairie rattlesnake
The prairie rattlesnake is a venomous pit viper that lives across the Great Plains and the foothills of the Rocky Mountains. It is found in the western United States, southwestern Canada and northern Mexico. It shakes its tail to give a rattling warning when it feels threatened.1

Sida loo aqoonsado
- Usually lightly coloured in shades of brown, with patches of dark brown along the back1
- A colour band may be seen at the back of the eye1
- A triangle-shaped head with pit sensory organs on either side1
- Usually four internasal scales on the snout, with three or more in total1
- Commonly grows to more than 100 cm long1
Inta badan lagu khaldaa: Other rattlesnakes can look similar. A key difference is that two internasal scales touch the rostral scale, at the tip of the snout, in the prairie rattlesnake.1

Maxay samaysaa suntiisa (qaniin ama mudid)?
The venom is a complex mixture of proteins, including enzymes such as proteases and peptidases. It is hemotoxic, meaning it damages blood and destroys tissue. It also has neurotoxic properties, meaning it attacks the nerves.1

Muxuu sameeyaa marka uu baqo?
It rapidly vibrates its tail to make a rasping rattle that warns intruders, and it will defend itself if threatened or injured.1
Haddii uu qaniino
- Qofka ka dhig mid aan dhaqaaqin oo deggan, xubinta la qaniinay ku hay heerka wadnaha, ka saar faraantiyada iyo waxyaabaha adag, si degdeg ahna u geey isbitaalka.
Marka hore had iyo jeer wac lambarka gurmadka degdegga ah (112, 000, 911). Kani waa hage guud oo gargaar degdeg ah, ma aha talo caafimaad. Aasaaska gargaarka degdegga ah
Badbaado
- Weligaa ha taaban, ha qaban, hana ku ciyaarin xayawaan duurjoog ah, xitaa mid yar, xitaa haddii uu u muuqdo inuu hurdo ama dhintay.
- Meel u bannee. Haddii aad mid la kulanto, deg, tartiib dib ugu noqo oo u daa inuu jidkiisa maro.
- Haddii mid ku qaniino: deg, ha dhaqaaqin, wac lambarka gurmadka degdegga ah (112, 000, 911) ama si degdeg ah u tag isbitaalka. Xusuuso sida uu u egyahay, sawir ayaa caawiya.
Kuma raadinayo. Suntiisa wuxuu u isticmaalaa inuu cunto ku qabsado ama isku difaaco, wuxuuna aad u door bidaa inuu dhuunto. Wax badan oo ku saabsan badbaadada

Xaqiiqooyin
Females often gather in communal dens to give birth and care for their young. Some females even look after unrelated young while the mothers take a break.1
Newborn snakelets measure 22 to 28 cm and are venomous from the moment they are born.1
Prairie rattlesnakes prefer a straight migration path, even in areas dominated by humans, because it gives them a better chance of survival.1
In Montana, the species reaches its largest size, with specimens sometimes exceeding 120 cm.1
In Canada, the species is listed as a species of special concern because its numbers have steadily declined since the 1930s.1
