    Absolutely beautiful country, the Velvet Worm blew me away , I could have just watched it walk with those chubby little legs for ever 😂👍🏻I’m not a snake person but you showed some very beautiful ones. Thank you so much for taking me on this journey with you as I would never have been able to see just how beautiful this country really is. Never realized that frogs could be so beautiful and yet deadly. I have never in my 78 years seen so many animals. Have a safe journey home. 😍❤️👍🏻👏🏼👵🏻🇺🇸

    Man you guys found some really cool stuff there. Next year I'll spend more time on the Caribbean side. I've spent lots of time touring CR and there's much better herping on that side.

    • @Reptiliatus
      @Reptiliatus  Před 2 lety

      Thanks so much man! Yes, I would agree. From my limited experience it felt like there were way more animals to see on the Caribbean side but the ones on the pacific side, were pretty unique and harder to stumble across.

    Favs so far: glass frogs, dart frogs, and the tailless whip scorpion…. But I have yet to see the basilisk! (?)
    Question: how did you all decide who would do the intro to each of the species found, to show in their own video? Rock Paper Scissors? Lol
    What did you say was the name of that lil skink that had tons of colour, green body orange tail? Shaped like a Schneider’s or fire skink? Soooo pretty, the body reminds me of the red eyed (leaf) frog body’s patterns
    I’m torn, I could sit here and watch you explore Costa Rica all in one sitting, but having another video experience to look forward to is fun too 😊😉

    Here in Costa Rica we are told from a very young age to avoid, kill, and inspect vegetables for slugs, and to soak it in chlorinated water if found any on it, since they carry deadly bacteria, I wonder if that slug eatting snub nosed vine looking snake, carry the same bacteria in its gut, feces, or skin, thus making it infectious for us humans and also felines, as I understand one of these deadly bacteria life stages requires it spending some time inside a cat's intestines.
