About the Eastern Diamondback Rattlesnake
The Eastern diamondback rattlesnake (Crotalus adamanteus) is the largest rattlesnake species in the world, capable of reaching lengths up to 8 feet (2.4 meters) and weighing over 10 pounds (4.5 kg). Found in the southeastern United States, this powerful pit viper inhabits forests, grasslands, and coastal dunes. It is known for its diamond-shaped dorsal markings, intimidating rattle, and heat-sensitive pits that allow it to detect warm-blooded prey. Its long, retractable fangs deliver a potent hemotoxic venom, which breaks down tissue and disrupts blood clotting, making it one of North America's most formidable predators.
