ILLUSTRATED WITH MORE than 250 dramatic original colour photographs depicting not only fangs and rattles but also intricate patterns and extraordinary camouflage. Rattlesnake traces the evolution and behaviour of the more than eighty living species and subspecies of rattlesnakes, from East Coast timber rattlesnakes to California's desert-dwelling sidewinders to South America's neotropical species. Explaining the functions of anatomical characteristics such as heat-sensitive facial pits, Manny Rubio also describes rattlesnakes' diverse habitats, feeding strategies, reproductive cycles and seasonal hibernation patterns. Drawing on recent research and replete with never before published photographs, Rattlesnake is landmark guide for both professional and amateur herpetologists, as well as a fascinating introduction to the most maligned reptile of the Americas.
