A big, defensive Western Diamondback Rattlesnake in the backyard of a home in Scottsdale. It wasn’t that way originally, of course, spotted resting in the corner, thermoregulating against the stable temperature of the home’s foundation. But, it didn’t love being disturbed when CJ arrived to help it get to a safer spot. He was taken to a deep cave under a large granite outcrop shaded by palo verde that will provide the same stable temperatures as this spot.
