Animal of the Day!

Arabian Sand Boa (Eryx jayakari)

(Photo in public domain)

Conservation Status- Least Concern

Habitat- Middle East

Size (Weight/Length)- 40 cm

Diet- Reptiles; Small mammals

Cool Facts- Yes, this is a snake and yes, its eyes are on the top of its head. Being completely nocturnal, the Arabian sand boa spends most of its life buried under sand. At dusk, they wiggle their way to the surface so that the majority of its body is hidden. This is where their eyes come into play. With eyes positioned on their forehead, the Arabian sand boa is a vicious ambush predator. When a gecko comes into range, the boa strikes and constricts the lizard to death. Luckily, people don’t have to worry about this little guy. They’re only big enough to get your pinky toe into its mouth.

Rating- 12/10 (Please don’t laugh, they’re sensitive about their appearance.)

Prompt - Choose

@jegulus-microfic December 26 Word count 157

I seriously can't believe I wrote this. Based very very loosely on an old oven chips advert.

“It’s a simple question. Regulus. Just choose.” Sirius banged his hand down on the table in front of Regulus. It had started off as a joke, but when Regulus didn’t answer, Sirius couldn’t help himself and had been repeating his question for the last quarter of an hour. 

Regulus looked from the plate of steaming, fat chips to his right and the steaming hot, hunk of a boyfriend, sat on a chair to his left. 

“Choose, Regulus. James or chips.” Sirius ordered. Regulus flicked his eyes between his two options. Back and forth. James or chips? James or chips? James or chips? 

He snapped his head up. Looking his brother directly in the eyes and boldly proclaimed. 

“Daddy!” Before jumping from his chair so fast it fell over backwards with a clatter as he launched himself onto James’s lap, straddling his legs and kissing him hard. 

“WHAT!!!!!” Sirius yelled, reeling. “POTTER YOU ARE IN SO MUCH TROUBLE!!!”

On This Day in Cryptid History

December 26th: In 2018, a couple driving past Prairie Creek in Muncie, Indiana saw a winged humanoid flying over the tree line next to them. They stopped and watched the creature, observing that it had a face, bat-like wings and dark colored. Another sighting was reported a year later.

Animal of the Day!

Arctic Woolly Bear (Gynaephora groenlandica)

(Photo by Vasika Undurawane)

Conservation Status- Unlisted

Habitat- Northern Canada; Greenland; Wrangel Island

Size (Weight/Length)- 70 mm

Diet- Leaves

Cool Facts- You might be surprised to hear that insects are able to thrive in environments that dip below -70 Celsius. The arctic woolly bear is a tiny moth that has mastered the freezing cold. These caterpillars live their life in constant motion as the growing season, when food is available, is only a maximum of 70 days. The caterpillars switch between feasting on leaves and basking in the sun, doing their best to grow in a race against the clock. When leaves start to shrivel and the snow returns, the arctic woolly bear weaves itself a silken blanket and shelters under the snow, essentially freezing itself solid. After a total of seven years, amounting to only 490 days outside of diapause, the arctic woolly bear cocoons and bursts out as a moth. For a period of 3-4 weeks, the moth flutters around to breed and lay eggs before passing away and the cycle continues through their offspring.

Rating- 12/10 (Spends only 6% of its life as an adult.)
