The year is flying past, so thought I’d better share the happy news that I’m joining the School of Biological Sciences at @MonashUni @monashbiol as a Group Leader from Jan 2025. Couldn't be more thrilled to be returning to the place that introduced me to research as an undergrad!

飼育中のブラーミニメクラヘビ。
捕食場面を動画で撮影しましたが、何度見ても不思議な食べ方をします。
まるで掃除機のように、スルスルと吸い込まれるように口の中へ入っていきます。

3/ and they eat pupae and larvea of ants and termites. So those eye shields are good to have!

アリの幼虫を吸い込むように食べるのがわかります！
