If you look at the lower left of this picture you will see the distinctive black rings around the tail. Western Diamondbacks are also called "coontails" for this reason. Afew years back I found one nearly dead at he end of my driveway here in Madison County Iowa. Called the local Conservation dept. They said it couldn't be a Western DBack as they don't live in Iowa due to the harsh winters. Said it was a timber rattler (I've found 2 here in the last 10 years) or a rare Eastern Dback. I held my ground and told them is was a coon tail or western. I took it in to them and they still wouldn't agree with me-said we don't have westerns here in IA. 3 days later he calls to tell me is WAS a Western Dback. Probably hitched a ride on a truck or was released as a pet. They are having it mounted to display. (I wanted to be a herpetologist as a kid, ended up a science teacher and an airline pilot instead)
