In this video, we explore how rattlesnakes completely switch their schedule to become nocturnal during scorching summer months, hunting rodents, birds, and frogs under the cover of darkness. Discover how they use specialized heat-sensing pits on their faces as natural thermal night-vision goggles to map warm-blooded prey in pitch black, and why you must always use a flashlight and watch your step while hiking or camping at night!
