Twin Spotted Rattlesnakes (Crotalus pricei) are small, high-elevation rattlesnakes that are found in a handful of mountain ranges in the Sky Islands region of Arizona and northern Mexico. They are occasionally seen by hikers on high saddles and trails, where they are quick to flee with a departing buzz. A person would really have to pick one up or be hiking barefoot to get bitten by one, if they’re even lucky enough to see one or have it stick around long enough for that to happen.
