Speaking of mutating

I have what I think is a skin to a Mojave and Western Diamond back. I do not really like to kill things in the wild especially snakes since I think they help us more than hurt us (they are great for rodent control) But we were riding our horses and a rattler came after us. This is unusaly behavior from what I hear. Once he was shot we buried the head and actually ate him it was pretty darn good. In the reserach I did it looks like a hybrid (or whatever they are called) We are not suppose to have Mojave in Central NV but it sure looks like it. He was also very aggressive and people say the Mojave is aggressive (not sure I dont know anything about hot snakes) There was a guy in town that would import snakes and he would sell and he did have some Mojaves, I just guessed he had some get away. It is interesting how things can change in the wild.
