Marbled Newts Eating

This is the best I could capture my marbled newts on camera eating today, but as they have a large and adoring public, I'm posting what I managed. For more information on Triturus marmoratus, see www.caudata.org.

I love Maddow and Newts. Not Newt, though. 

[otterwoman]

@melissa10474 I am so with you on that! That's why I'm so thrilled they used my video to link to. They couldn't have found a more sympathetic newt owner.

[otterwoman]

@otterwoman They could have chosen a better newt video though!

@facelessno1 Why would you make in inside joke in the most public place. I'm far from offended by your stereo type so you can go fuck yourself, idiot.

[netforce0]

@facelessno1 i was making fun of white people in my area, a lot of it was inside jokes and what i find personally funny... but hey if you are offended by a silly youtube comment go fuck yourself

[facelessno1]

@netforce0 Isn't it kind of ironic that with a comment like that you are trying to insinuate that Republicans are ignorant? Frankly at this point I'm questioning if you are intelligent enough to responsibly vote, and unless your comments are relevant to herps, I suggest you spew them elswhere.
