Widespread development in this area has displaced wildlife, which will drive encounters and dangerous situations for years. This Western Diamondback Rattlesnake was already trying to find what it could, and was thankfully found before someone killed it.

This beat up Sonoran Gophersnake was called in as a rattlesnake. Normally, it's easy enough to tell the tail of a rattlesnake from these harmless species, as gophersnakes have a pointed tail. But this one had an accident some time in its past, leaving it with a rounded stump.

A pair of courting Western Diamondback Rattlesnakes in the north valley. Jeff was careful to capture and release them together directly to a deep packrat nest, where they can hopefully continue making little rattlesnakes for next season.

A Sonoran Desert Tortoise resting in the shade in on a hot morning in the Big Horn Mountains of western Arizona. These tortoises become nocturnal during the hottest parts of summer, moving and eating after dark and returning to their deep caves by the time the sun hits the area again.

The pool guy was working when he heard a rattle from an unseen snake. It disappeared quickly, but Marissa was able to find it in a rodent burrow near the pump, and get it back out to the desert.

A Southwestern Speckled Rattlesnake hiding from the sun near the entrance of a shallow cave in south Phoenix. During the springtime, this species can be found even relatively far from its rocky habitat, hunting birds and lizards at the base of creosote.

This gate has been modified with steel and concrete to prevent rattlesnakes from getting into the area. This one has an interesting design that required some custom design, and it turned out great.

A homeowner in Tonopah called about a Western Diamondback Rattlesnake hiding out in the yard. The home was surrounded by open desert with no fence, so a property with access under it is a very useful feature to small animals.

A Western Diamondback Rattlesnake coiled up behind a pot by the front door. These situations are easy hiding spots that snakes can use to get out of the sun for the day. Cheyenne helped this one get to better surroundings.

A homeowner in Casa Grande called about this Mojave Rattlesnake that was hanging out by the backdoor. The property was large and open, and the snake found a nice spot in the shade of the patio for the day. Austin got it out to suitable habitat and released it directly into cover, as always.

Pygmy Rattlesnakes in Oklahoma!
Finding my first Western Pygmy Rattlesnakes in Oklahoma. These pretty little rattlesnakes are closely related to the Desert Massasaugas I'm more familiar with from Arizona.

A Southwestern Speckled Rattlesnake found this spot to hunt near the doorstep of a home in Ahwatukee. CJ went out to help it find a better spot. These snakes are specialists that can't just be released anywhere (true for any snake, really), and he took the time to find deep cover in a steep canyon
