Oh, Oh, Connecticut not part of New England?? Those are fighting words. I was brought up in MA and NH and have lived in CT since 1971. We in the Nutmeg state consider ourselves to be true blue New Englanders.
In Connecticut there is a known Timber Rattlesnake population in the hills of Glastonbury, just East of Hartford. Aso there are Timber Rattlesnakes in the Blue Hills just south of Boston in Canton, MA.
I have never seen one in the wild and hope not to ever see one.
