Taiwan Tiger Keelback (Rhabdophis tigrinus formosanus), family Colubridae, Taiwan

Mildly to moderately venomous.

Venom is excreted into the saliva, and enters the prey through the bite wound. Keelbacks do not have fangs.

This species is also poisonous! They sequester toxins from the toads they prey on.

Some herpetologists consider this to be a distinct species, R. formosanus.

I appreciate them so much! They’re cliff-nesting birds, of course, so if you look at it with a cliff-nesting frame of mind, it…… no, that still doesn’t make sense. What is that arrangement. Look at that perfectly placed fuck.

The Reddit r/StupidDoveNests is very good for this!

Both of these tags are right. I love when a cat will just put up with your silly human games. They love you and know you love them and are just happy with you.
