Flying snakes help scientists design new robots
The scientists hope their findings will lead to increased understanding of gliding motion and to a more optimal design for gliding snake robots
C’mon, scientists! No one asked for flying robot snakes.
A Texas Facebook group’s goal to identify locally found snakes illustrates a growing trend of wildlife enthusiasts on social media promoting accurate information and shooting down myths about much maligned creatures.

By engaging with such groups, people are learning to be less afraid of their scaly neighbors and to get through encounters without harming them.
Some good news.
