I did, though I should note that it was not found as pictured. It was on the edge of a dirt parking lot. Ny plan was to bag it up and stick it in my freezer so I put it in my car and drove off. The stench was overpowering so I pulled over, dropped it on the side of the road, and snapped this photo. It was unclear to me, given its initial location, whether or not it was killed by a car or killed by hand and then left to rot. The rattle appeared to have been taken as well.

Did you enter it as DOR in the Method field?
