My latest! Eastern garter snakes can pass a smell-based version of the mirror test — and thus demonstrate self recognition, the first known reptile to do so. 🐍🦎🧪

The most common snake I come across are tiny little ringed neck snakes that live under my flower pots. They are very small and cute <3 I've never thought of keeping them because they are fairly easy to find where I live #reptiles #snakes #reptileart

Here’s one of the calico snakes (Oxyrhopus formosus) from the rain forest of NE Peru. This species almost seems to self-illuminate :) #herps 🐍
