Poisonous coral snake,Micrurus dissoleucus
Numéro d’image : 11914214
| The deadly poisonous coral snake Micrurus dissoleucus,photographed in Venezuela. This coral snake has very similar markings to certain moderately poisonous snakes in what is known as Mertensian mimicry. When deadly snakes attack predators their bite is fatal,so no animal learns to avoid them later nor transmits this information to its offspring. If the deadly snake resembles a moderately poisonous one,predators will associate unpleasant consequences with those markings by experience of previous encounters with the non-deadly snake. Totally non-poisonous snakes also mimic the same moderately poisonous species in order to discourage attack | |
