Rattlesnakes originated in the Americas, primarily along the West Coast where the landscape is drier. There are several prominent rattlesnake types, including Timber Rattlesnakes which are found in the Northeastern region of America, Diamondback Rattlesnakes from the Mid-South and Southwestern regions of America, and the Cane Break Rattlesnake from the Mid-South and Southeastern regions of America.

A rattlesnake is called a rattlesnake because if approached and it feels threatened it will shake its tail, making a rattling noise to warn that it will bite.
