Never wrestle a troll. You both get dirty and the troll likes it

Re: Strange animal pics

Patagonian Cavy (Mara)


A large rodent that looks sort of like a rabbit, sort of like a donkey. The Patagonian Mara lives in Central and Southern Argentina. Maras inhabit arid grasslands and scrub desert




Elephant shrewThey are widely distributed across the southern part of Africa, and although common nowhere, can be found in almost any type of habitat, from the Namib Desert to boulder-strewn outcrops in South Africa to thick forest.




Pink Fairy Armadillo
It is found in central Argentina where it inhabits dry grasslands and sandy plains with thorn bushes and cacti. It has the ability to bury itself completely in a matter of seconds if frightened.
The Pink Fairy Armadillo burrows small holes near ant colonies in dry dirt. It feeds mainly on ants and ant larvae near its burrow.






Long-eared Jerboa
"The Mickey Mouse of the desert" - mouse-like rodent with a long tail, long hind legs for jumping, and exceptionally large ears. The jerboa, found in the deserts of Mongolia and China, is listed as endangered on the IUCN Red List.

In a word, No. there are no snakes big enough to swallow a hippo.

The, "Is this real" was meant for the bug video, it looked like some kind of toy at first, but turned out it is a real bug. As for as the snake swallowing a hippo I have been looking at it closely and believe that it is an Asian baby pygmy hippo. The snake is possibly a recalculated python. What do think? Look closely at its feet.

You might be right but i wonder why there is never a shot of the "hippo" Head? I also wonder why the snake was harassed into throwing up it's meal to begin with? I had forgotten about the Pygmy hippo, My bad for that. Even a baby african hippo would be too big.

Re: Strange animal pics



The video shows it has splad toes, It could possible be a ful grown pygmy hippo.

Re: Strange animal pics

You've never harrased a snake into throwing up its meal just to see what the bulge is?

It probably was a baby pygmy hippo but it could not have been an adult.
