I'm working on a "theory" and I've been meaning to ask this for a while.
Is anyone familiar with any species of snake, other than A. piscivorous, that regularly tilts it's head back when gaping as a defensive display so that the mouth is opened upward?
I know lots of species that gape but all the others I know usually face forward. And I AM interested in hearing from anyone keeping cantils.
Yawning, stretching or respiratory infections don't count. ----- What goes up must come down...unless it exceeds escape velocity.
