shoutout to toad owners. there’s few of them, there’s few people who empathize with toads or think they’re cute, the care information is scarce so they have to do a lot of research. they’re ethical to keep. they’re fun to watch. toad time

Scorp and scorplings! Newborn scorpions ride on their mother’s back until they grow a hard exoskeleton on their first molt.

This striking specimen is Hemiphractus fasciatus, also known as the banded horned treefrog. These frogs can be found in northwestern Ecuador and possibly parts of Colombia. They’re a nocturnal species that breeds year-round. They possess a defensive posture in the form of opening their mouths to reveal bright yellow gums. They’re also said to bite readily when provoked.

Life is full of fleeting encounters; sometimes you only get a glance at a toad’s soggy butt cheeks before they’re trundling off into the summer night. This western toad [Anaxyrus boreas] was found on a country road by photographer Matthew Gruen.

life speedpaint of the blue death feigning beetle that lives on my desk. They don’t reach adulthood in captivity, so they are wild caught. I wonder if they miss the vast wilderness and majesty of the mojave… probably not.
