#Rattlesnakes are currently on the move looking for water and rodents after emerging from their dens following a long winter. They are most active during the #summer at dusk and dawn. Here are 5 things to remember while you’re out in #hiking:
1. If you see a rattlesnake, stay calm. Like most wild animals, they fear humans.
2. Give the snake at least 5 feet of space. Do not touch it.
3. Don’t kill it. It’s illegal and greatly increases the chance you’ll get bit.
4. Alert those nearby to use caution and respect the snake.
5. Keep your dogs leashed. Allowing them to roam increases the chance they’ll find a snake and get bit.

One of my favourite videos I took during my time working at the zoo! A Guyanese rattlesnake (Crotalus durissus durissus) having a big yawn! Is he tired? Is he trying to show off his beautiful fangs? The answer to both of these is NO! ♀️ .

After feeding snakes at the zoo, it was common to see the snakes “yawn”... Snake skulls are composed of many bones, ligaments, and connective tissues. This complex skull structure gives snakes more flexibility and allows them to consume larger food items! After food is consumed, snakes will open their jaws wide to re-align all their tendons and ligaments! (Which is what you’re seeing here!) #thatsprettyneat .

This species of rattlesnake is native to South America! Unlike most rattlesnakes in this portion of the globe, this species has neurotoxic venom. Bite symptoms include blindness and paralysis... ⚠️ .
