WATCH THE TONGUE. It really IS blue.
This little guy is a blue-tongued skink (Tiliqua scincoides) and he apparently wants to make sure nobody forgets how he got his name.
Just strolling along, sticking his tongue out. A few more steps โฆ tongue out again.
That bright blue tongue isnโt just for show, either. It can be flashed as a warning to startle predators.
But this one looks less intimidating and more like heโs proudly showing it off.๐
Iโve been watching that tongue come out way too many times.
