Georgia Rattler
« on: August 03, 2010, 08:39:20 AM »
A friend sent me this pic of a Diamond Back Rattler killed near Cooperville GA, about 70 miles south of Augusta.  Don't know if this is real or a hoax, but if it's real, that's the biggest damn rattler I've ever seen.  I have seen a couple over six feet but nothing this big!
