Crotalus oregus
I saw this snake at the Berlin Zoo. The color pattern has a dark-brown, dark-gray, olive-brown, or sometimes black or pale yellowish ground color overlaid dorsally with a series of large, dark blotches with uneven white edges.
This species is found in North America in the western United States, parts of British Columbia, and northwestern Mexico.
There are seven subspecies are currently recognized. It is a venomous snake.
