No picture here, but the words (this is out of my daily science news feed from Nature) are plenty creepy.

Researchers observed how Asian kukri snakes use their large teeth to disembowel poisonous toads and dine on their organs while the toads were still alive, a behavior not witnessed before in snakes. It's possible the snakes have devised this method of eating to avoid the toads' toxic secretions, scientists say in Herpetozoa.

 

I hadn't heard of kukri snakes before.  Something for your Fantasy Hero game.

When I was a kid growing up in Central Florida, my Y-Indian Guides* group camped out next to a lake. We swam in the lake during the day, but at night, we were greeted with a view very similar to these pictures when we'd throw light from our flashlights across the lake.

 

 

 

*This was shortly after the Vietnam War, and my Mom wouldn't let me join the Cub Scouts/Boy Scouts because she didn't want me in a paramilitary organization.

There is precedent--

 

THOR: "We on Asgard pretend that we are more advanced, but we, we come here battling like Bilgesnipe."

COULSON: "Like what?"

THOR: "The Bilgesnipe, you know; huge, scaly, big antlers. You don't have those?

COULSON: "Don't think so."

THOR: "They are repulsive, and they trample everything in their path."
