Rattlesnake and Chuckwalla in Mesa

Rattlesnake and Chuckwalla in Mesa

An evening call in the Red Mountain area. The homeowner was working in the garage and his young nephew was just outside the backdoor of the shop playing when he noticed a rattlesnake moving about the rocks just outside the doorway, after alerting his uncle, I was called out to relocate the snake who had gone further down the side of the building and settled into a large pile of tile and brick materials. After the snake was contained they pointed out a Chuckwalla who sleeps every night between the gap along the side of the garage 😍 . The snake was released far from buildings within its home range into this cozy packrat nest for continued food and shelter. – Alivia
