This Western Diamondback Rattlesnake ate something big, like a desert cottontail. It was coiled near a chicken coop – a situation that can attract predators, including rattlesnakes. It was relocated as gently as possible so it wouldn’t lose its meal.

A call came in for a rattlesnake, but it ended up being this Sonoran Gophersnake. It’s an easy mistake to make, considering how noisy a defensive gophersnake can be! It was moved elsewhere within its home range, and the homeowners got a lesson in local wildlife.

Rattlesnake encounters aren’t inevitable – much can be done to reduce or eliminate encounters even in areas rich in wildlife and native habitat. This property, which would otherwise see several rattlesnakes on the patio in any given year, is now a less stressful place to be … for both people and the animals.

This Gila Monster showed up on a recent Rattlesnake Fence installation project, and got a ride to more suitable conditions. Gila Monsters can climb amazingly well!

Look at this TINY newborn Western Diamondback Rattlesnake from back in September. These little ones often don’t survive their first year of life, becoming prey for all kinds of animals and generally prone to failure. This one was helped along to a better spot by Marissa.

Commercial property inspections, either as a one-off or recurring serial inspections, like this one, are one of the services offered […]

A baby Western Diamondback Rattlesnake was spotted cruising around on the patio of a Carefree home back in September. In the late summer, these little babies are wandering everywhere, seemingly at random, trying to figure out how to be a snake. This one got a second chance at life when it was safely moved away […]

This little Western Diamondback Rattlesnake was rescued from a pool in Ahwatukee. Often, snakes aren’t so lucky, but these homeowners saw it in time and called CJ out to rescue the little guy.

This Sonoran Coralsnake was stuck in a gluetrap in north Phoenix. These snakes are, like all coralsnakes, venomous, but the only way to be bitten is to pick it up. CJ was able to free it from the trap and gently release it to better conditions.

Nik found this newborn Western Diamondback Rattlesnake swimming around in a backyard koi pond in Tucson. This typically isn’t on purpose – snakes trying to get a drink can fall in and have difficulty getting out. Thankfully, this one was retrieved and relocated safely.
