Asian water monitors practice ‘open pursuit’ hunting instead of stalking and ambushing. Did you know they swallow their food whole or in large pieces; they are able to dislocate their thyroid bone in order to enlarge their throat. 😱 . #asianwatermonitor #lizards #reptilelove

The white-lipped pit viper or white-lipped tree viper🐍, is a venomous pit viper species endemic to Southeast Asia. The venom is primarily hemotoxic. This snake doesn’t strike and release its prey; like many arboreal snakes, rather holds on to the prey item until it dies. #snakes

Big one-red sand boa & the small one-common sand boa. Both the species are non-venomous & they constrict their food. These boas are nocturnal & spends the majority of its time under the ground. Fun fact: Red sand boas are largest of the sand boas in the world. ✨🐍♥️

🐍👑 Meet the King Cobra: the snake world’s version of royalty! With its majestic hood and a length that could make even a giraffe jealous (up to 18 feet!), this serpent reigns supreme. Fun fact: Its venom is so potent, it’s like inviting other snakes to a one-way party!

Reptilian scales are made of keratin, like hair, and found in an overlapping arrangement. This creates a sort of environmental shield for the animal. Although most reptiles shed their scales periodically, snakes shed their skin in a single piece. 🐍✨. #snakes #scales #slytherin
