We are looking at the structure of the dorsal fin spine locking mechanism. Triggerfish and filefish are wonders.

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. 🐍🦎🧪
How a Snake Uses Its Sense of Smell
These reptiles and their social networks are understudied, according to researchers applying scents to different snakes to assess their behavior.

Most reptiles can't chew, preferring to bite prey into chunks or swallow it whole. However, New Zealand's tuatara has its own impressively baroque system for breaking food down into manageable pieces.

How long have rain frogs been kept as pets? They remind me of little grumpy buns!

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

I occasionally wish I was small enough to walk on water 🖤
Love seeing a bunch of globular springtails just derping around on the surface of a pool. Like if you saw a herd of cows just wander out on to the surface of a lake just to chill

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

Make a great first shrimpression with these shrimpeccable looks. Whether you're shrimply fabulous or krilling it on the runway, these shrimpspired outfits will have you feeling oh-so-shellfishly chic! 🦐✨
An image titled “steal their look: shrimp edition” displays a photo of a peacock mantis shrimp (Odontodactylus scyllarus). The close up photo of the shrimp highlights their round fly-like eyes and their colorful claws and antennas. Illustrated assets surrounding the photo in the center provide recommendations on how to look like this shrimp. The suggested items are: blue eyeshadow, a tie-dye shirt, a pair of disco sunglasses, boxing gloves, and a fringed jacket. On the lower left corner of the image, the Monterey Bay Aquarium logo is positioned as a watermark.
