The banded rattlesnake is recognizable by the wide black and red bands that encircle its tubular-shaped body.

Other information
An example of the rattlesnake's coil strike maneuver:
A banded rattlesnake uncoils in a lightning fast strike towards you. Too slow! The banded rattlesnake rakes you with its fangs before it withdraws. ... 15 points of damage! Strike just below the jaw, nice shot to the neck! You are stunned for 3 rounds!
