Uncover the Secret Lives of Snakes
California RattleCam
Colorado RattleCam
You are watching a livestream of a Western Rattlesnake rookery at an undisclosed location along the Central Coast of California. At this rookery, several pregnant female snakes shed their skins, bask in the sun, and prepare to give birth and care for their babies. The livestream runs 7am - 8pm PT each day from July through October.
See our California Learning page to read more about Western Rattlesnakes, other animals here, and see the California named snakes.
Calling Elementary Educators!
We are recruiting third-fifth grade classrooms to participate in research about the impacts of the RattlEd curriculum on youth perceptions of snakes. We are hoping to gain representation from across the United States!
