I hope that's not a picture of the snake the cats found, because that is not a massasauga.

Nope, that's not the picture of the snake the cats found. We try to
only use copyright free photos or other photos that give us permission
to use them. Sometimes this means that we can't find an exact
representation of the subject of the article, so we select a copyright
free or creative commons image that we believe will somehow convey the
message of the article and help the reader understand it. Since we
could not find a picture of a massasauga with the appropriate
permissions, we selected an image of a different snake, which we hoped
would help the article come alive to the reader.
