We may never understand the deep connection “Nick” apparently has with the Howar
We may never understand the deep connection “Nick” apparently has with the Howardensis. By all appearances, the dread reptile connives its way into the hypermasculine enclosure purely for the pleasure of stunning “Nick” with its paralyzing venom, then engaging in furious threat displays at the immobilized primate. Despite this, “Nick” seems genuinely happy to see the Howardensis, and becomes truculent and irascible when the reptile’s digestive torpor keeps the two from romping together for more than a day or two. Although we had hoped to study their interactions to learn more about friendship bonds between the lower primates and other species, we have found no answers–only more, and very confusing, questions. -- source link
