    Massasauga rattlesnake is a subspecies of Sistrurus catenatus. Timber rattlesnake is Crotalus horridus, see this link; http://www.rom.on.ca/ontario/risk.ph...id=102&lang=en.
    We have the Pygmy Rattlesnake (Western Massasauga - sistrurus catenatus edwardsii) down here in Arizona. They're only found in the Southeastern Chirichahua Mountains of the state. It is one of the 4 protected species, and is considered the most primitive form of rattlesnake in the US. They only grow up to 22" long.
