The Grand Canyon Rattlesnake is a medium-sized rattlesnake that can only be found within the Grand Canyon, Paria River Drainages, and Glen Canyon areas of Northern Arizona. The grand canyon rattlesnake is tan, yellowish, or pink in color; a good match for the colorful rocky areas that make up the majority of its range. This snake has a pattern of irregular blotches along the back, often with a dark brown outline. When born, the pattern is highly contrasted but fades as the snake grows. Mature adults can appear to be all but patternless.
