Marvolo likes to cosplay as a bullwhip. Marvolo is a Sheltopusik, or European legless lizard. He is not a snake!

Mr Wigglesworth - legless lizard (sheltopusik)

Scientific name is
✨Pseudopodus apodus✨
which mean “false foot”, “no foot” and I find that to be a bit of overkill in reference to their lack of foot-y-ness.

Borderline rude really.

Lizard of the day: Sheltopusik!
These legless lizards' common name translates to "yellow-bellied" from Russian! They inhabit open grasslands and hills, preying mostly on slugs and snails. They have a powerful jaw that allows them to break snail shells!

Apropos of nothing, I just discovered a photo of the world's most content lizard.

This dude made the plan, executed the plan, and is now reaping the rewards.

Lizard of the day: Sheltopusik!
A legless lizard species that can be found from Southern Europe to Central Asia! They're mostly active in wet weather, hunting down snails and slugs with their specialized shell-breaking jaws! They're capable of musking and shedding their tail.

The sheltopusik, or European Glass Lizard, Pseudopus apodus. A slightly disturbing animal, I think because of its oddly human-like eyes. Delighted to find this today at the ruins of Asseria nr Podgrađe, Dalmatia.

Pseudopus pannonicus is probably the biggest non-snake legless lizard ever. It could grow to be over 6 feet long! This is much bigger than its closest living relative, Sheltopusik (📸), the current biggest legless lizard.

Here’s a redescription.
