australia venomous snakes🐍 GHOST shedding… 😃
It’s always fascinating to see an elapid shed.
As they are very vulnerable during this process, they try to get it done as quick as possible.
Where the old skin separates from the body, you can see the isolated movement of the muscles to aid this process.
It shows beautifully, how much these creatures are in control of their body.
It’s a lengthy video but we’ll worth to watch.
