The radio-controlled rattlesnake has realistic skin and serpentine movements, so it looks and moves just like the real thing. It’s based on the eastern diamondback rattlesnake, Crotalus adamanteus, the largest rattlesnake and the most dangerous to humans.

Use the controls to make it slither, rattle and flick its tongue. It charges directly from the handset. Requires six AA batteries, not included. Ages 8+.
