One Response to “Snake Puzzle: Python Glows in the Dark”
I remember being shown a picture of what looked like a Malformed snake egg. The collector who brought me the photo called it a snake eye and said it glowed. He also told me that the python used it to attract prey and once it had got something to eat would swallow the snake eye after eating to use again at a later date. I will see if i can get the collector to dig up this photo and post it on here, this will take me a little time mind as i have to refind him. This report comes from around Chuka near Mt. Kenya and is interesting in its similarity to the Taita story.
