Rattlesnake - Not an endangered species. The Western Diamondback is the largest Rattlesnake found in the Western United States. Their distinctive scaled back pattern resembles a repetitive diamond motif. Sometimes called a "Coon-Tail Rattler" due to the rattle-tipped black and white striped tail. They are aggressive when disturbed and administer deadly venom through retractable fangs. Rattlesnake skin is durable and requires little care but a little upkeep at frequent intervals will keep the skin in good condition. Dust and dirt that settles in between the scales will cause damage so carefully remove loose dirt or dust under or around the scales with a soft brush or rag. Search for a conditioner recommended for Rattlesnake at a local exotic leather shop or department store in your area. A thin coat will help the skin stay soft and flexible. Brush or wipe in the direction of the scale grain.
