Gaboon Viper HOMPH, San Diego Zoo, 2024
One of the reasons I love zoos so much is because they let me get a close look at things that would be wicked dangerous irl, or cost a ton of money, or both. If I saw a wild gaboon, I'd be backing away out of his space, but at the zoo, I can watch up close against the glass as he devours a tasty meal, showing off his fangs.
