Formidable and instantly recognizable, the rattlesnake is one of America's most famous snakes. Its most well-known feature is the rattle at the end of its tail, which it shakes to warn of danger. This sound signal can resonate dozens of times per second, thus frightening its predators or warning intruders.
Venomous, the rattlesnake uses its hollow fangs to inject its venom when hunting. It mainly feeds on small rodents, thus playing an important role in population control. Surprising fact: its rattle is formed of hollow segments that are added with each shed, but which do not allow its exact age to be determined.
This Papo figurine faithfully reproduces the rattlesnake's appearance: detailed scales, a triangular head, and a raised tail ready to vibrate. An essential model to complete a collection of wild animals, invent thrilling stories, or educate children about the fascinating world of reptiles.
