Snakes don't have large ears.

Um, snakes don't have ANY ears.

Like other reptiles they have no external ear at all. Like most other reptiles the quadrate bone is located just under the skin and channels sound to the cochlea. (IOW they hear in part with their jaw.)

It's a good idea if you don't ridicule others in the thread if you're gonna be making a significant gaffe yourself.

Yeah, when you can show me where I said snakes do have ears of any kind I will gladly retract the following comment:

You are a LIAR.

I called Vaquero on HIS ridiculing of something. If you want your share of it, then keep this up.

Otherwise, quit repeating lies and get over it.
