Western diamondback one of the world's LARGEST and most dangerous snakes??? I'm hoping this isn't something the zoo curator said, but rather something the article's author ignorantly added. I live in El Paso, and I'm not too far from the edge of the city where it meets the open desert. I haven't seen any snakes in the city though. Seen plenty of atrox out in the areas a bit farther out from the city, but nothing around homes and whatnot. For people right on the edge, of course it could be a problem, but I haven't heard of anything happening so far this year.
