5. Washington
There are around dozen snake species in Washington, all of them being non-poisonous except the northern pacific rattlesnake (Crotalus oreganus oreganus). This species is widely spread from Canada throughout the western US coast down to northern parts of Mexico, and it is the most widely distributed rattlesnake in north-western US. That is why it regionally differs and has 9 subspecies.
