Caption
Prairie rattlesnakes typically live in the middle of the United States, from Canada south to Texas and from Idaho east to Iowa. They grow about 35 to 45 inches in length and have a signature rattle that is used to warn potential aggressors away. Rattlesnakes are venomous, and their bites can be fatal.
