What is your favorite crotalid?

[jtpRUGGER]

Ok. Heres the deal...Instead of starting a thread that will cause people to complain about this or that, or invoke arguments, I thought I would just give everyone a chance to talk about snakes. I know there is a place to list your favorite snake on your profile, but I thought it would be interesting to find out everyone's favorite species of Rattlesnake. If you want to respond, please include the species and subspecies, and a brief note as to why its your favorite. Pics are nice too. I thought about just doing a poll, but that would limit responses. I will respond with my personal fav. once I see that there is any interest whatsoever in this thread.
