That's not what's actually going on. They're toads.

Edit:

May his passage cleanse the front lawn; may he keep the world for His toads.

Why do they do this? Does it turn them on?

Seleni@lemmy.world · 30 pts · 1y (1 reply)

You’ve got that backwards. They’re turned on, and grabbing everything in sight.

Ah that makes sense

I like the way your mind works.

edit: apparently experts agree with you

I just can't think of another reason why a toad woud step on another animal's back. That's how they have sex after all. The female even carries the male around for a while. I think this could be close enough to do the trick for them. Like toads are not deep thinkers. They're definitely not up there to enjoy the scenery. And it's too many of them for it to be an accident. Yeah, I thought this through before commenting 😂

Mating season. These guys will hump a rotten mango.

I'm going to venture a guess: the snake is vegetarian, right?

edit: nope, the toads (this is a 3.5m python btw, so they're pretty large) are poisonous.

Those toads must have a danger kink to hump a snake.
