Re: Which snake is the weirdest?
That's so crazy, I can't imagine that there was no selective pressure for that "nose", can anyone confirm the flexibility/rigidity of it at hatch?
Maybe it is similar to the tentacle snake and has a mechanosensory function

Variable bush viper, stiletto snake, any of those snakes that have adapted to fly/glide are pretty darn different from the typical serpent.

So maybe it's like a caudal lure, only on the other end of the snake...to help attract prey right into their mouth!?

It wasn't very clear, lol. I was pretty sure that the Rhinos don't eat mambas, but didn't feel like taking up the charge...
