When it rains, prairie rattlesnakes coil up and TURN THEIR BODIES INTO RAIN-HARVESTING DEVICES.
Even the baby sneks do it!

Hi, I'm a blue-capped ifrit, & I can put you in the hospital.
My feathers & skin are laced w/a protective neurotoxin, which I get by eating super spicy beetles.
Touch me & you'll feel the burn. Eat me & you won't feel a thing. Because you'll be dead.

Hi. Someone just told me opossums are "disgusting creatures", and because that aggression cannot stand, I'm busting out this old piece @_adamwilson & I did a million years ago and which is, sadly, no longer on the internet. Enjoy!
