New paper on feeding in snakes of the genus Tantilla!

8/23/2023

 
Noah Gripshover published the first chapter of his dissertation in the journal Integrative and Comparative Biology! In this paper, we describe flat-headed snakes and southeastern crowned snakes feed on the dangerous prey of centipedes. Noah was able to document some novel prey-handling techniques, and the videos of them feeding are gnarly! Check out the link to read the paper.
