Scientists Discover Flying Snakes!!!

[Monster Dave]

Holy Crap!

Flying snake gliding 1

Apparently, snakes can fly and we just now found out!! Scientists discovered that they flatten their bodies and angle their heads so they glide through the air, which make them capable of flying from tree to tree at measured distances of up to 15 meters or approximatively 50 feet!!

Holy Crap!!



Next thing you know they'll find out that Piranhas really can fly to!!

Awesome! That kicks ass. I love snakes, always have. They are cool critters. I have a good friend (known each other since we were 10) who is totally freaked out by snakes. Big time. I have the world's best realistic rubber snake and every few years it "reappears" when we go dove hunting at another friend's ranch. If I could only rig it to fly out of a tree on him. Hmmm, gotta work on that. It's been hiding for a few years and deserves a standing ovation appearance. Of course, as we have gotten older there is the heart attack issue to be concerned about. Ah... make the beast with two backs it.

That looked a lot like a falling snake to me.

A risk worth taking.

I saw this show the other day and I totally thought the same thing.  So it goes about 10 more feet than every other snake.  Big Deal. 

Would be pretty freaky to have one of those come at you though.

snakes aren't right in the first place and that's just when they're on the ground...no they can fly WTH!

Just looks to me like you need someone yelling "Pull!" holding a shotgun and that could be lots of fun.





No, I am not a fan of snakes.
