This midget faded rattlesnake at the Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum might look quite large, but in reality this species rarely reaches lengths over three feet. While it may be small, it is no less potent, possessing venom that is more toxic than most other rattlesnakes. Juveniles are also just as toxic as adults, making them equally as dangerous to their preferred prey, which includes lizards and shrews. #rattlesnake #midget #faded #snake #slithering #venom #venomous #toxic #PhotoArk #savetogether

The Western Diamondback demonstrates its defense! On #WorldSnakeDay we celebrate these fascinating reptiles with a PSA. Did you know rattlesnakes don’t know how to be aggressive? What some might interpret as aggressive behaviors are actually high-level defense behaviors, and only occur when lower-level defense behaviors like camouflage, escaping, hissing, or rattling are no longer an option. The best way to respect the snek and avoid a bite? Keep your eyes peeled, watch your step, and give them

A Sonoran Desert Tortoise and a Western Diamondback Rattlesnake living together in a desert wash. This is much more common than you'd expect. In many cases, seeing a tortoise can be a big indicator that there are rattlesnakes in the area as well.

An always-special Sonoran Desert find—this tiger rattlesnake making its way through its rugged desert home. 🐍 Smaller than some of it's close relatives in the area, yet beautifully patterned, and packing one of the most potent venoms of any rattlesnake, this species is a great reminder that size isn’t everything in the desert. An incredible animal to observe respectfully and from a safe distance. #HerpingArizona #arizonawildlife #arizonbiodiversity #SnakeSpotting #SouthernArizona #roadcruising

Life with roommates can be … interesting. 😆 Churro the roadrunner lives with Cantaloupe the antelope jackrabbit in our Life on the Rocks exhibit! They are both rescues that have found a home at the Desert Museum. Video: Cantaloupe runs toward Churro, who flaps and flies away in response. Cantaloupe sits by a pile of poop and pees, while Churro investigates the foliage. Then Cantaloupe hops toward her rock, hiding behind it but her ears are still visible over the rock. Churro continues to invest

Our Sonoyta Mud Turtles (Kinosternon sonoriense longifemorale) were especially curious today...👀🐢 These resilient reptiles are built for both land and water. Their tough carapaces (shells) protect them from predators and can close almost completely, helping them survive short droughts by going temporarily dormant in a process called estivation. With strong legs for walking, digging, and swimming, mud turtles move swiftly between ponds and shorelines. They can hold their breath for long periods

Don’t miss this RARE WILDLIFE SIGHTING! We were blessed with the perfect weather conditions to see this special creature crossing through the desert. To keep the birds from startling, Raptor Free Flight trainer Amanda took over the mic to share some fascinating natural history info about this Sonoran Desert subspecies. Fun fact: They are mostly vegetarian - but do enjoy the occasional burrito! What creature could it be? | Arizona-Sonora Desert Museum

This means the animals they care for have to be especially comfortable a
