That pic has been around for a while. I heard it was in Texas.

The pic usually appears in emails with this one of a gator found in a pipe.

yip i have seen that email. it also comes with a photo with an anaconda with a supposed person inside of it.. is that a croc or a gator??
 
Is that the biggest these gator's get or can they get bigger? Thats seriously huge.

Thats it im goin to rehab.....(bubble bubble bubble)
just kidding :p
 
I'll take a handful. Okay a few bags full. Then I can breed them to my male Cascabel I'm picking up next month.

Incedently, the gator pick is a persepective peice. The gator isn't as big as it seems. No gator gets that big.
 
Actually, on closer look, those don't look like Neo-Tropical Rattlesnakes. They look a bit more like a C. viridis ssp. I don' t think that photo was taken in Brazil.

should check out the sizes of the saltwater crocs up here, they are massive
 
Wow, how cute is that, all cuddled up together, can anyone hazard a guess as to what this type of behaviour might suggest? My first thought is hibernation, i thought rattlers were fairly solitary creatures though. They are alive right????
 
I know some species of rattler "den." This is where large numbers of them spend the winter together in a cave or some such.
 
They appear to be diamond backs so definately U.S. Anyhow, Cascabels are the south most rattlesnake and don't extend as far south as Brazil.
 
Actually, Chewy, one of my books says that one of the subspecies of the Cascabel - Crotalus durissus terrificus - is found in "SE Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay and Nth Argentina", and lists three other ssp. found in Brazil.

Just as a matter of interest.
