The Last Dinosaurus Clan

Museum worker in New Zealand express that reptile which is considered to be the last clan of Dinosaurus which above on this world will become a father for the first time in ten years on the age of -111. Henry, name of this tuatara, with his couple that is younger, Mildred releases many of eggs last month after marrying in Museum Southland, south Island of New Zealand, Last March.

This Tuatara curator Tuatara, Lindsay Hazley, Wednesday then tells about Henry’s live in the special place in a special museum of Tuatara since 1970 and show don’t want to marry because of last cancer which grows in his genitals that is taken or operated. He now enjoy for the real live, consorted three female tuatara which will bear again next March. Australia as known has many reptile type that each of this animals have amazing character like Thorny Devil from Australian Dezert. Tuatara if look to the physical form, this animals like Thorny Devil or like a Komodo from Komodo Island of Indonesia.

Komodo Dragon

The largest living lizard, the Komodo dragon, Varanus komodoensis, attains a total length of up to 3 m (10 ft) and an average weight of 136 kg (300 lb). These giant lizards live only in the vicinity of Indonesia, for example, on Komodo island, for which they are named. They are representative of the monitor Lizard family, Varanidae. Like other monitors, Komodo dragons are carnivorous, feeding on animals as large as small deer and bush pigs. Like other large monitors, they can be formidable adversaries, even for humans, if actually cornered. Young Komodo dragons climb trees, but adults, far too large to be arboreal, dig burrows or spend hot daylight hours under bushes, coming out in the morning and evening. Like several other monitors, Komodo dragons swim well. These reptiles are endangered and are under strict protection by the Indonesian government.

The Komodo dragon is a relative of the extinct 7 m (23 ft) reptile V. pricus, whose remains have been found in Quatenary deposits in Australia. The origin Komodo is from Komodo Island that is located in Nusatenggara Timur (East Nusatenggara) island in Indonesia.

Thorny Devil Lizard

Amazing Lizard form Australian desert.

Slowly move their right back foot then put into the disc contains of water. This is a Thorny Lizard, act seem not as dangerous as seen, even their body fully of keen thorn, the length of this lizard estimate until man shoulder high just 2 cm less. This lizard look so sweet to the cruel environment, that dwelt by most noxious snake in the world include inland taipan (Oxyuranus microlepidotus) which can kill one hundred people by 30 gram poison and also desert death adder (Acanthophis pyrrhus), what its name have depicted its buttonhole.

The environment of that desert is very cruel, where the wind fizzing among the mulga trees (Acacia aneura) that feel like puff of hair dryer with maximum setting. In here in the desert field, in the dried part of the dried world that live by human, we must know exactly of water position to get next drink water. After 30 second their foot put into the disc their back the wet, water from the disc have diffused through their foot up to the body, and a few second water have come up into their mouth, the lizard taste by the tongue. Basically this lizard drink by their foots. This lizard can accumulate water from the damp sand, an excellent ability of desert dweller.

The skin more hydrophobic that you ever think, this may any hide capillary pipe in their foots that can flowing water to the mouth. Thorny Devil lizard from the dry Australian desert show the magic ability by sipping water up to the mouth through by aqueduct among the scales. The scientist hope able to imitate the lizard mechanism to develop technology to accumulate water from dry area.

Mamba Snake.

The black mamba (Dendroaspis polylepis) is a highly aggressive and venomous elapid snake. It is the largest venomous snake in Africa and the second largest venomous snake in the world. Only the King Cobra is larger. Adult black mambas have an average length of 2.5 meters (8.2 ft) and a maximum length of 4.5 meters (14 ft). The black mamba receives its name from the black coloration inside of its mouth, rather than their skin color which is a gray to olive tone. The black mamba is reputed to be the fastest moving snake in the world, and has been claimed to move at up to 20 km/h (12.5 mph), but these claims are based on studies of dubious accuracy.

A single bite from a Black Mamba may inject enough venom to kill from 20-40 grown men, easily killing one unless the appropriate anti-venom is administered in time. When cornered, they will readily attack. When in the striking position, the mamba flattens its neck, hisses very loudly and displays its inky black mouth and deadly fangs. It can rear up around one-third of its body from the ground which allows it to reach heights of approximately four feet (1.21 meters). When warding off a threat, the black mamba usually delivers multiple strikes, injecting its potent neuro- and cardiotoxin with each strike, often attacking the body or head, unlike most other snakes.

Cobra

Cobra is the name popularly applied to African and Asian snakes of the family Elapidae that are capable of spreading long ribs to flatten their necks into a hood when threatened. Included are six species of the genus Naja, as well as the South African ringhal (Hemachatus), king Cobra (Pseudohaje), and shield-nose cobra (Aspidelaps).

 

Cobra bites are potentially dangerous to humans. A few species, the ringhal, black neck cobra, and some species Asian cobra, can spray venom from their fangs accurately with human eyes causes immediate, severe irritation of the conjunctiva and cornea. If untreated, permanent blindness may result.

 

Cobra are large snakes, usually 1 m (3.3 ft) in length or longer. The king cobra, or hamadryad, holds the record length of 5.58 m (18.3 ft) for a venomous snake. Cobra are famous for their use by Oriental snake to visual cues, have a rather slow strike, and are of spectacular appearance.

 

The Indian cobra is a favorite of snake charmers because daylight hampers its ability to make an accurate strike. At night, however the venomous snake is extremely dangerous. Only 10 % of cobra bites are fatal. Yet it is estimated that cobra kill 10,000 Indians each years.
