how much is known about this snake does it for instance have the spur in its throat for puncturing the egg that some other egg eaters have? it sounds fascinating more info, more info
I'm not actually a gynecologist...but i'll take a look.
There actually was a report of a south American population of garters that have made the move towards raiding the eggs from birds nest in one of my issues of 'The Garter Snake' (EGSA newsletter). Thamnophis dasypeltissima is restricted to a network of islands and was first reported in 2007 on the Tauranga Atol and there have only been few biological observations of this species so far.
I'm confused.. Why is it an April Fool's joke? I probably just missed a joke or something
Because the species doesn't exist. Because it's not a valid scientific name. Because the story was published in the April issue of the EGSA newsletter. And because the "person" behind the "story" is the same as in another classic hoax: Rhinogradentia - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
