I think of boomslangs, they're green because they live in trees.

2018-07-16 06:56:46 UTC  

Seasnakes, yellow because of coral.

2018-07-16 06:56:55 UTC  

think of cottonmouths, black bc they live in swamps

2018-07-16 06:57:05 UTC  

they have crazy good camo

2018-07-16 06:57:14 UTC  

Plus I'm not sure any snakes are actually venemous to eat.

2018-07-16 06:57:18 UTC  

The venom is in the fangs.

2018-07-16 06:57:29 UTC  

I'm sure some are, but not most.

2018-07-16 06:57:31 UTC  

Taipan

2018-07-16 06:57:48 UTC  

perfectly coloured for the desert

2018-07-16 06:58:43 UTC  

Generally only prey animals use bright coloration as a deterrent because being brightly colored and being an ambush predators would never be naturally selected.

2018-07-16 06:59:10 UTC  

Predators are just not bizarrely colored.

2018-07-16 06:59:21 UTC  

Cheetahs don't ambush and they still have camo.

2018-07-16 06:59:28 UTC  

they stalk

2018-07-16 06:59:38 UTC  

But the hunt is running. They don't ambush.

2018-07-16 06:59:47 UTC  

they stalk as close as possible before running

2018-07-16 06:59:53 UTC  

You don't do a sing and dance even if you want to run something down.

2018-07-16 06:59:57 UTC  

They aren't ambush predators.

2018-07-16 06:59:57 UTC  

thats an ambush of sorts

2018-07-16 07:01:53 UTC  

@εïз irma εïз have you ever seen videos about the ambush theory?

2018-07-16 07:01:59 UTC  

Cheetahs will ambush you

2018-07-16 07:03:42 UTC  

someone red pill me

2018-07-16 07:04:02 UTC  

Yes, why would they not?

2018-07-16 07:04:08 UTC  

The hunt is the running, not the ambush.

2018-07-16 07:04:15 UTC  

They are not ambush predators.

2018-07-16 07:04:22 UTC  

All of the energy spent is spent on the running.

2018-07-16 07:04:45 UTC  

Again, why would they not?

2018-07-16 07:04:49 UTC  

You don't do a sing and dance.

2018-07-16 07:05:00 UTC  

yes

2018-07-16 07:05:02 UTC  

yeah

2018-07-16 07:05:13 UTC  

i think stalking up close and suddenly running out of bushes at your prey counts as an ambush of sorts

2018-07-16 07:05:33 UTC  

"Pursuit predation is an alternate predation strategy to ambush predation. While pursuit predators use a detection and pursuit phase in order to obtain prey, ambush predators use stealth to capture prey. Strength and speed are important to pursuit predators, whereas ambush predators ignore these in favor of surprise from a typically concealed location."

2018-07-16 07:05:44 UTC  

"a surprise attack by people lying in wait in a concealed position."

2018-07-16 07:05:52 UTC  

They are pursuit predators. Every pursuit predator relies on stealth.

2018-07-16 07:05:55 UTC  

they are not an ambush predator but they do ambush prey

2018-07-16 07:06:13 UTC  

Except every ambush fails because the ambush isn't what kills the prey.

2018-07-16 07:06:17 UTC  

But yes they ambush.

2018-07-16 07:07:49 UTC  

CollegeHumor is painfully unfunny.

2018-07-16 07:08:01 UTC  

They consistently release disappointing videos that I might have found funny when I was 12.

2018-07-16 07:08:18 UTC  

Isn't Adam Ruins Everything CollegeHumor?

2018-07-16 07:08:32 UTC  

Most unfunny liberal shill piece of shit ever.

2018-07-16 07:08:41 UTC  

I hated him even before I found out he was a liberal shill.
