I've lived in Florida for over 55 years and have never seen a rattler in the wild here, except one my wife shot about 30 years ago. I've seen them in Texas, but never here.

I was in Florida last year for less than 48 hours and found two Eastern Diamondbacks. Absolutely gorgeous. Supposed to return this upcoming year and I hope to find more.
