  Rattlesnakes are a group of venomous pit vipers native to the Americas, famously known for the distinctive rattle at the end of their tails, which they shake as a warning. They vary in size, from small species measuring less than 1 meter (3 feet) to large ones exceeding 2 meters (6.5 feet). Their coloration and patterns vary widely, often providing excellent camouflage in their diverse habitats, which range from deserts to forests. Rattlesnakes are ambush predators, feeding on rodents, birds, and other small animals. Their venom is potent and used to incapacitate prey and for defense.
