that is badass
Real County, TX
I've watched enough Naked & Afraids to know exactly what this one is.aggiesed8r said:

Yeah nope. Being naked in a rain forest and having a fer de lance around to potentially bite you in the unprotected chuggies makes you very very afraid.
Screw that.
Screw that.
just looked them up on wikipedia and theres a picture of an 11 year old with maybe the most necrotic/gangrene leg ive seen.MyNameIsJeff said:Oof. I've seen some pretty awful pictures of what they can do.aggiesed8r said:

Speaking of angles, i didn't see a single brown anole as a kid and now insee SO MANY around Houston. It is wild. We just moved out to the Golden triangle and the browns are gone. Pretty wild.

So, are you really this close to that sucker or is there some zoom lens help?
I had a friend doing research on frogs in the DR for her doctorate and she got tagged by one. Nearly died and almost lost her leg. They made a National Geographic special about her. The pics of her leg flayed open due to the venom were things of nightmares.

I've never understood what is golden about an area inside the Beaumont-Port Arthur-Orange boundary.

About 5 feet away. We were at Manuel Antonio National Park. The guide pointed it out.
As a SETex kid who moved away: Oil, liquid gold. Or the bubbas get so plastered they give each other golden showers on the regular. Both fit.
Don't see many in that immediate area
Because Austin already had the ******* of Texas title.maroon barchetta said:Sea Speed said:

On the Outdoor Board, I always figured the real Golden Triangle was Laredo, Cotulla, and over to Eagle Pass

The name comes from the spindle top era / oil and all the wealth that came from that area.
Of course it's all moved out now.

We also went through that park with a guide. The wildlife they can spot is amazing.aggiesed8r said:

Our first sloth was on the way to Poas Volcano. There was a tour bus pulled over on the side of the road with about 15 other cars. The little dude was crawling along the electrical lines over the road between poles and everyone was taking pictures. The bus driver said he's usually there about this time every day.Counterpoint said:Tony Franklins Other Shoe said:We also went through that park with a guide.

We finally got to see real tree sloths in Manuel Antonio. Also saw a bad ass green snake and a pretty big anteater on a night hike we did.

Pattern on that one is gorgeous
Pretty snake!
No doubt headed north to cup of Joe's new place !

My understanding of the Fer de Lance is it is by far, the most common venomous snake from central America through Brazil. I'm sure mosquitos are still the most dangerous animal, but only because there's thirty billion of them with about 15 different diseases.MyNameIsJeff said:Oof.

Hate is how progressives sustain themselves. Without hate, introspection begins to slip into the progressive's consciousness, threatening the progressive with the truth: that their ideas and opinions are illogical, hypocritical, dangerous, and asinine.

Bit the JRT. Slithering right where we play in the backyard most evenings. Damn thing just disappears in the grass to where it is hardly visible.
dead snake in my yard… for sure
How's the dog doing?
Can't tell from photo, but head is mostly detached.
Wife took her to the vet just in case. Thanks for asking.

Sorry but what snake is that?
Cottonmouth
Ok. That was where I was leaning. Thanks.
Neighborhood near my home here in AZ. Snake was relocated successfully. We are very close to reservation land and open desert. Beautiful snake and glad it was not killed.
I know what it is, but figured I would let others take a guess.

Black tail?
