More on Proper Heating

Thursday, January 12th, 2012


One of the most satisfactory ways of heating insects in the undergrowth for the remaining part of the summer and early autumn, usually confining their activities to the nighttime or dusk and dawn. During the day both adults and newly metamorphosed young will hide in some safe cavity, perhaps under or within rotten fallen timber, under rocks, or in the leaf litter. The adults lose their breeding dress during the terrestrial stage, the male losing his crest and dorsal pattern, becoming plain black above but retaining the bright orange and black belly.

Many species of newts and salamanders possess bright colors that act as a warning to predators that they are poisonous or distasteful.

Varanus Rudicollis

Sunday, October 23rd, 2011


The rough-necked monitor of Borneo, Varanus Rudicollis, is easily recognized by the extremely thin snout, long nostril, and enlarged heeled nuchal scales.

Temporal arch is present. Osteoderms are greatly reduced or absent. Scalation is uniformly small and granular. The tail may be spiny or long and whip-like. The family consists of one genus, with nearly 60 varieties, found in Africa (except Madagascar), Asia, and Australia.

These lizards are active predators. They can run, swim, and climb well; many are excellent burrowers. When frightened in the open, they aim at clambering up the nearest vertical object, herpetologists not excepted! These animals are strictly carnivorous and strictly oviparous.

The Devices of Snakes for Subduing Food

Saturday, August 27th, 2011


Though limbless, lethargic and small-brained, the snake is one of the most perfectly efficient predators in the animal world. Elstic jaw points let it accommodate any prey of reasonable size. A slim body lets it prowl or lie in ambush inconspicuously. A slow metabolism enables it to wait weeks for the right meal. If food walks by that might put up a dangerous fight, a snake can usually afford to ignore it.

Once a snake does attack, its problem is to find an end where it can start swallowing. If its victim is slender, like the lizard opposite, the snake can simply throw its open mouth directly over the creature’s head. But if the victim is wriggly and fat, like the rat above, the snake has to immobilize it first, by wrapping coils around it boa-fashion, or – if the snake is poisonous – by giving it a quieting shot of venom.

The Iguanas Motile Movements

Tuesday, August 25th, 2009


Movement of the lizard’s head with the dewlap fully extended. With its mouth half open, the Iguana emits a hissing sound that seems to originate from deep within its oral cavity. To convey yet further hostility the lizard moves its tail slowly back and forth, resembling the movement of a snake and suggesting the idea that it is about to strike out with this weaponry. Although lacking prehensile capabilities in its tail, the iguana is endowed with voluntary control over the movement of almost the entire length of its tail. This last threatening display can be more than mere show. An adult iguana can induce pain with a forceful snap of its tail. The iguana has many small

Teeth. When the iguana bites, it sometimes clamps its jaws shut and shakes its head back and forth, similar to a dog tugging on a towel when playing with its master. Judging from the fierce behavior that the irate iguana exhibits, it might seem that its proficiency in the art of self- defense would render it invulnerable to many predators. The truth, however, is that an iguana probably would be defeated in a conflict with any but the smallest of

Warm-blooded animals. An unusual and sometimes

Exasperating behavior that appears to be unrelated to the iguana’s display of aggression is this lizard’s ability to emit a spray of a salty liquid from its nostrils. This spray may be inadvertently directed onto the iguana keeper’s face when feeding or otherwise tending to the lizard.

In captivity the iguana is a territorial reptile. A male specimen does not allow intruders of the same sex within his boundaries. If two adult males are forced to co exist, one probably will become dominant and harass the passive lizard with frequent hissing and biting. An iguana defending its territory sometimes rams the trespasser with its snout and bites on impact.

It is reasonably safe to assume that a male and female of similar size can be kept as a pair without incident. The females of the species appear to be more passive, which suggests that two or more females might feasibly be housed safely within the same residence. Collectively housing as many as a dozen hatch-lings harmoniously is possible.

Leashing a Domesticated Iganua

Thursday, August 20th, 2009


The best setting to be in is to be positioned behind the iguana’s dewlap. Care should be taken to avoid damaging the bony structure inside the dewlap. The loose strap that remains is looped around the lizard’s chest behind its front legs and is fastened to the top of the harness. Avoid an unnecessary degree of tightness, which can choke and/or pinch the lizard.

Difficulties can arise with the undomesticated iguana when the lizard is taken outside. The iguana seems insecure when outdoors unless it is perched in a tree. On a level, grassy area an iguana usually flattens itself out on the ground, probably in

As practical and convenient as is this harness, the iguana can be fairly adept at wriggling out of it. Other potential sources of danger to the iguana that is tethered to a tree include cats; dogs, wild animals, and inquisitive children.

Defensive Mechanisms of Iganuas

Wednesday, July 1st, 2009


An escape mechanism of the wily Iguana is that the tail can come off the animal in cases of extreme stress.  Many Iguanas when examined will be noted that they are missing tails or portions of tails.  From time to time it has occurred that accidentally owners of their pets have accidentally stepped on the tails of the brood, with the animal startled , leaving its tail behind and running off.

If cornered or trapped an Iganua may bite , leavinga very clean cut , or will use its tail almost as a whip, leaving a nasty welt.  Claws seem to be only for holding or grasping food or climbing not for personal defence.  Iganuas can be said to be “climbers by instinct”, meaning that they are more apt to go up than down.   This is not unlike cats who once having scaled a tall tree are unable to come down , and need assistance from perhaps a stranger or even the professionals  from the local fire depatrment.  Owners of Iganuas must be careful . If their pets bolt out an unlocked door they may quickly scale the nearest tree , never to be found again , and to freeze in colder climates and seasons.
