Topic: Slow-worm Identification and Sightings
About 20 Years ago now, in the village of Clutton, in Somerset, I caught a completely Black Skinned Slow Worm. Whats more interesting is that the Slow Worm lived in the vicinity of a coal merchant yard. Could it be that this slow worm had evolved this colour purely for camoflage? P.s. No the slow worm was not covered in coal dust ;-) P.p.s Have also seen Blue speckled grey ones (Her name was Biggums - she was very large, and quite old). Live Love and Learn. |
