Heterodon platyrhinos
This guy played dead for two of these pictures, as hognoses are apt to do. In addition to this neat display they will also spread their neck similiar to a cobra, and will strike without biting. Very interesting defense mechanisms! (Just to prove he's not dead I included a picture of him slithering off, haha)
