The Spectacled Salamander: when threatened, this salamander curls its body into an aposomatic defensive position that exposes the markings on the underside of its tail and legs
Salamandrina perspicillata, commonly known as the northern spectacled salamander or Savi's salamander, is a peculiar species that can be found only in Italy.

When the salamander feels threatened, it often displays a defense mechanism known as the unken reflex -- it curls its tail up over its body and arches its back, exposing the bright red markings that run along the underside of its tail, legs, and cloaca. These aposomatic markings serve as a warning to potential predators by signalling that the salamander is noxious or unpalatable.

When it curls itself into that defensive pose, the salamander's tail and body often form a complete loop, with the tail draping over its nose.

The males of this species have also been known to assume an upright position while searching for a mate, standing on their hind legs and using their tails to support themselves.

The northern spectacled salamander is a very small species, with a total length of just 80-90mm (about 3 to 3.5 inches) from the tip of its nose to the end of its tail. According to this article:
It prefers cool, shady habitats rich in natural refuges: broadleaf woodlands, moist valleys, and stream edges with little current. It can be found among leaf litter, under logs and stones, in rock crevices, old dry-stone walls, caves, and natural cavities.
It is especially connected to microhabitats with abundant vegetation cover and the presence of temporary water reservoirs—environments that ensure the survival of both terrestrial adults and aquatic larvae.
The adult males are completely terrestrial, dwelling only on land, but the females nest and lay their eggs underwater. The hatchlings then remain in the water for 2-4 months before emerging onto land.

i've been obsessed with this video so i downloaded the video file off of youtube so even if the internet goes down i can always watch frogtimelapse.mp4
wiktionary lists "isolation" as the antonym of "context," I don't know if this is linguistically true. I suppose "in isolation" is the opposite of "in context" but it doesn't transfer to their noun forms . "context" is not listed as an antonym of "isolation." it's not worth starting a talk page about
in isolation isolation isn't an antonym of context but in the context of in context vs in isolation it can be
Ohhh Jesus needs to hear about this 🙏
severely underrated gag imo is the one where a character turns very slowly and the sounds of stone grinding against stone is superimposed over it
