i love seeing the look on peoples face when i tell them that there are some snakes that don't lay eggs and instead have live young. Such as most boas, rattle snakes, and garter snakes!

When people ask me what the difference between a python and boa is, that's my answer.

That yawn is super adorable. A lot of people are shocked to find out that a lot of sharks do this as well. :O

I'm constantly fascinated by what goes viral.
