Life Of Rattlesnake

Rattlesnake is a beauty of all other snakes in the world.Several times a season the mature fangs are shed.The external opening of the hollow fang is a groove on the outside of the fang, set slightly back from the tip to prevent it from becoming plugged by tissue from the prey.The females are ovoviviparous.Most of the young rattlesnakes are 5 to 7 inches (12 to 17 cm) when born. They are born with a single rattle or button, fangs, and venom. They can strike within minutes, but being so small, they are not very dangerous. Average broods consist of 6 to 13 young, but sometimes twice as many may be produced.The young are born in the fall. Most rattlesnakes are mature within 2.5-3 years, but may require more time in northerly areas. Rattlesnakes may not produce young every year.An interesting matter is thoses snakes never close their eyes, since they have no eyelids. Rattlesnakes often look much larger when seen live than after they have been killed. This happens because their right lung extends almost the full length of the tubular body, and when the snakes inhale they can appear much fatter and more threatening. The expulsion of the air can produce a hiss sound from the snake.Rattlesnakes usually see humans before humans see them, or they detect soil vibrations made by walking human or others living things. They coil for protection, but they can strike only from a third to a half their body length. They are usually found in Australia,North America.People become lap of death after the bitten of Rattlesnake.
