venomous
(quokk.au)
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Show loris(big eyes), African crested rat(spiky hair), Cuban solenodon(shrew like thing), and of course the platypus.
I was only aware of a platypus. Is it all administered through some barb like appendage on the legs? Which one shoots venom missiles?
The loris and the solenodon have toxic saliva. The rat is controversial as it slathers chewed up poison dart tree on itself so hairs absorb it but it doesn't produce venom/poison itself. Not sure of any "venom missiles" from mammals.
Damn rats are smart.
