How was it discovered?
In September 2015, marine biologist David Gruber filmed a hawksbill sea turtle glowing neon green and red while diving near the Solomon Islands.
This was the first time biofluorescence was observed in a reptile.
What is biofluorescence?
Biofluorescence is the ability to absorb certain wavelengths of light and re-emit them as a different color.
The most common colors are green, red, and orange.
Python (Snake) is a large, non-venomous snake that kills prey by squeezing (constriction). It eats mammals, birds, and reptiles—including geckos!
Pythons and geckos are both reptiles and share a distant evolutionary ancestor. Millions of years ago, they both evolved from early reptiles, but they took different paths:
Common Reptilian Ancestor → Both pythons and geckos evolved from ancient reptiles that lived around 250 million years ago.
Different Evolutionary Paths:
Pythons became large, legless, constricting snakes that hunt larger prey.
Geckos stayed small, agile lizards with sticky feet for climbing.
Just like fingerprints, no two people have the same tongue print! Your tongue has a unique combination of ridges, textures, and patterns that make it completely one of a kind. Even identical twins, who have the same DNA, have different tongue prints.
Scientists have studied tongue prints as a possible method for biometric identification, just like fingerprints or retinal scans. Since the tongue is protected inside the mouth it doesn’t wear out as easily as fingerprints, making it a reliable way to confirm someone identity in the future, you might be able to unlock your phone or confirm your ID just by sticking out your tongue!
