2:39 p.m.: Northwestern Ringneck Snake - #HumboldtCounty, #California. #ca #cali #norcal #westcoast #pnw #reptile #snake #ringneck #herp #herping #californiaherps #nature #natureporn #earth #life #wildlife #canon #macro #tiny #cute • • Here the snake is displaying it's ventral colors. It does this in an attempt to warn a predator that it is not a good choice for a meal. There are two main types of aposematic coloration, batesian mimicry and mullerian mimiciry. Batesian mimiciry is when a non-venomous/non-toxic animal has the colors of a venomous/toxic animal. An example would be a honey bee and a bee fly. Mullerian mimicry is when a venomous/toxic animal share the same colors and/or patterns of another poisonous/toxic animal. An encampment would be a honey bee and a wasp. #Evolution is pretty cool! • •
