Uncharismatic Fact of the Day

Some snakes might look like a tentacle, but some snakes actually have tentacles! The tentacled snake is adorned with two short 'tentacles' on its snout; in actuality they are more akin to a catfish's whiskers, as they help the snake detect prey in the murky waters where it hunts.
