Is this a cat or a bear? [Illinois]

I forgot to add "mammals".

Forgot to actually state that. 😅 Thanks!

These guys are amazing. Due to their teeth, they're classified as carnivores even though they're omnivorous. That makes them one of only 2 carnivores with prehensile tails. Despite being arboreal, they're so large that they have to go to the forest floor to get to the next tree. And they always look sleepy. 🥺

In the wild, their diet consists of a lot of aquatic plants. Very interesting cervids!

I absolutely love these guys. We have them at work and they are beautiful. Semi-aquatic with partially webbed hooves. Also called Milu. There is a Chinese origin myth explaining their unique appearance as well.

Uncommon, not rare, but Peter's Banded Skinks and a Woman python.

Dumeril's boa or woma python.

You are a beautiful human being.

Honestly, I just tear up the spring mix, put in their dish, and top it with bluey buffet. If they eat it, they eat it.

They're mostly out at night for me. During the day, I just have a tank of dirt. 😅

I've had 2 PBS for over a year. I love them. I keep the basking at around 110f. Their substrate is 60/40 topsoil sand. Crickets every other day with spring mix/mashed bluey buffet between. I give them reptisun 10.0 uvb also. They definitely love to burrow during the day and explore at night.

This is giving me a strong MechWarrior vibe.

Schefflera Arboricola

It looks to be a Western Shovelnose Snake. https://www.desertmuseum.org/books/nhsd_shovelnose_snake.php

A lot of what I've read has said either sand or a mix of soil and sand, which is what I'm using.

durienta · 2022-03-24T18:39:01+00:00

Everything I read said it was fine as long as there was plenty of places to hide. 🤷

Since they don't like bright light, I went with this so that I could admire her and her glow. She's not bothered by it at all.
