Hey! Good to be back! Took a hiatus while I was job searching and getting settled in my new place, but I have checked in from time to time!

Love to share my passion for reptiles (and animals in general)! Hope to share more frequently going forward!

Doing well! Still hanging around and I SWEAR I will post again someday soon!

We just set up a new invasive species exhibit with these guys in it! They are in Virginia now, but really just confined to the largest cities.

@kcheeb I stand by the post 100% and I will explain why. Alligators don't eat nearly as often as a large mammal or other endothermic animals of the same size, this is absolutely true, but it's still a

Wow that was a mistake! XD This is awesome, I hadn't seen this particular case before.

Hey! I'm still around...ish lol. I plan on coming back, I promise! Just getting past our busy season and maybe time will clear up a little bit.

Gahhh I have been trying to come back for so long! I just need to buckle down and finally get a post going; can't let @herpetologyguy disappear!

I would say it has more to do with the experience of the owner than anything else. A tegu is definitely an advanced animal to keep; they can suffer from a variety of afflictions in captivity, but the bigger

Thank you, that's why I love the steemit community!

I do know what it is! It is a brownsnake, also known as a DeKay's snake! They do vary in color a bit but your best bet for identification is that they generally have a lighter stripe running down the back

LOL! I jumped at the chance to be paid to tell creepy stories at night. While there definitely is the ghost portion, a lot of it is really just sharing actual historical information about these sites in

That's okay! It probably wasn't, but I just have to ask since it kinda fits your description...it didn't look like this did it?

Hrmmm that size and shape makes me think some sort of racer then. Whatever it is, its head is really ornate! Did you happen to get a picture of the turtle?

Haha while that would be awesome, I am an independent contractor with a particular company. The license really just gives me permission to provide historical information about Wiliamsburg, so it doesn't

Oh man, those are some nice snakes! I have to admit, I'm not as familiar with Florida's snake species, but this looks either like an Everglades racer (based on length and shape) or maybe a species of ground

I go back and forth on that. Some fish are pretty tolerant of depth change (to a degree) and move up and down in the water column looking for food. But yeah, if they are adapted to the shallow reef waters,

I'd say it's true. Not only due to the sheer size and depth of the ocean, but we have to understand the entire ecosystem of the ocean, and there is probably a huge number of organisms we haven't discovered

One of the best game series out there. I tend to wait for most games to go on sale, but I paid full price for both and was not disappointed!

Thanks for the comment! The more that I think about this, it would be a great post in the near future!
