Notes
This adult snake had been killed by a passing car, and was missing its rattle. The end of the tail showed no trace of damage or scarring. The scales appeared to be perfectly symetrical all the way to the tip of the tail.
A total of five specimens were found within an 11-mile section of the road between 10:15 PM and 11:28 PM
