The snake certainly knew how to get a head.
I myself like to get a little extra head occasionaly.
Actually, they shared photos of extremely rare copperhead snake.
Pssst! Over here!
Yes, I’ve never seen one before. ;-)
We lived in Woodbridge Virginia in the early 60s when my father was stationed at the Pentagon.
Nearly every house on our street was occupied by military personnel. And every house was spic and span outside.
My brothers and I went back in 2003 to see the place and the street. It was quite different. And not in a good way.
Outdoors/Rural/wildlife/hunting/hiking/backpacking/National Parks/animals list please FR mail me to be on or off . And ping me is you see articles of interest.
A copperhead is NOT a pet.
Some snakes self-identify as bi-capita, or they had the surgery. Does that count?
It could speak with two forked tongues at once! A natural for government work.
That shows you how I don’t know very much about snakes.
I’ve never owned one, but might try with a Ball Python someday. I would just need a large locked cabinet, so it wouldn’t slide down the nearest toilet!
Meanwhile, I’ll just stick to caged birds and tropical fish.
I have never wanted to own a tarantula.
I wonder what Ray Milland’s first thought was when he saw the script for his part in that movie with Rosey Greer?
Ray used to be a very big deal in Hollywood back in the 50’s and 60’s.
Gee, just downstream from SM1 nuclear power plant.
Go figure. Go figure.
They don’t do that.
If they survive, normally one head is dominant.
Sometimes, both heads function normally and they just feed them both.
Lots of corn snakes pop up with two heads.
Quite a few survive it.
People are worried about a “double bite” but with two heads, its aim is gonna suck, anyway.
Cool thing.
Thanks!
:)
It’s not a rare photo, it’s a photo of a rarity.
I LOLd when I read pet and copperhead in the same sentence. No offense to the writer but around these parts the only good copperhead is a dead one. Especially the little ones.
Just looking at the pic gives me an edge.
