I nearly frikkin rejected this 'cause I thought it was a photoshop of a caecilian crossed with a dong. Then I saw more photos of the entire critter, it's legit. xD

Sorry for the delay approving all the things.

lol bb you gotta know I'd triple check before I submitted anything looking quite this ridiculous ;)

[blasphemusfish]

How could you not? xD It was the skin texture that got me.

The skin texture is what made me go "there is NO WAY that's a snake!?" and lo, it's an amphibian. Which made me go "oh."

The Amazon is a box of surprises when it comes to reptiles and amphibians.

Does anyone else suddenly have "dick in a box" stuck in their heads???

[blasphemusfish]

I do now. Yay :D
