We do have them around here and timber would be my first guess. Not sure, but I think they are protected. Check the images out on this site: http://tennsnakes.org/timber.htm

That is a timber rattlesnake
They were or are protected in Texas.
Usually dense wet forest areas. I've seen a few in red river county

No. The timber rattler can approach 5 feet I believe, but most are under 48 inches.

Old Velvet Tail rattlebug right there. Canebrake or Timber rattler which ever you prefer. I believe they are now listed in Texas as endangered. http://srelherp.uga.edu/snakes/crohor.htm

From Genesis: "And God promised men that good and obedient wives would be found in all corners of the earth."
Then He made the earth round...and He laughed and laughed and laughed!

Yup, timber rattler, protected in Texas but can be legally killed if posing a threat.....just don't try to sell it!! I have them and some diamondbacks on my place in N.E Tx, the timber rattlers tend to be bigger on my place
