This item is a coiled rattlesnake replica originally sculpted in clay then molded to portray the time immediately after catching it's prey.  One of the few sculpures offered here that can be displayed outside.  These props are created in long lasting epoxy.  This is aircraft grade epoxy which is as strong as steel (rated at 42,000 psi).  Realistic enough for the Fort Worth Zoo to install and rain on day after day (in a weather display).
