I just recently recieved this pic. It was sent labeled as HUGE a rattlesnake killed in my hometown area. Well sadely enough it is not a rattlesnake. It is a Diamondback Watersnake and the largest I have ever seen! It wasd even said to be in a reservoir with fish yet it was killed as a rattlesnake. So sad. I just wanted to post a pic to show the size. I bet this is as big as this species can reach. Also shows how people in my area glamourize killing a big snake. Very sad.
