There is a new Coyote Peterson video. The video is called."Blue Tongue Skink".

Here is the video:

Coyote Peterson is in Meandarra Queensland Australia. Coyote Peterson is looking for a Blue Tongue Skink. He is working with two animal specialists, Lockie and Max. The Blue Tongue Skinks are not venomous at all. Coyote Peterson said where they get their name is from their blue tongue. The blue tongue is very big. Coyote Peterson found a Blue Tongue Skink. At first, he thought it was a snake because of their back it's so scally just like a snake. They move like a snake too. Their color is all white with black swerve lines and a light cream ish brown. It looks really cool with their colors.

 Their tongue is so blue. The Blue Tongue Skink has very sharp claws. It feeds on little insects and sometimes plants. The Blue Tongue Skink that Coyote Peterson found was little over one foot long. 

These skinks are omnivores,

These skinks are ovoviviparous, which means they give birth to live young. Instead of eggs. They give birth to two to six baby skinks at a time. 

The males get a bit bigger than females.   

There is a new Coyote Peterson video. The video is called." Exploring for Cave Creatures".

Here is the video:

Coyote Peterson is in Lewisburg West Virginia.looking for a Cave Salamander. Coyote Peterson said the Cave Salamanders are rare because they are very fragile and you can only find one in a cave. The Cave Salamander can breathe through its skin. The Cave Salamander has a very cool looking color. Their color is all orange with black dots and its pretty. Coyote Peterson said the Cave Salamanders are getting healthy water. Coyote Peterson said it's very dangerous to be in a cave because the cave can collapse down. So Mario is on the outside because if the cave collapses he could go and get help. Only Coyote Peterson and Mark are going in the cave. They had to crawl in the cave. After a while. They could stand up in the cave. The water was up to their ankles. There were lots of spiders all around them so you had to be careful where you put your hand on. What the Cave Salamander eats is baby spiders and Mites and Worms and anything that is crawling in the cave. 

There is a new Coyote Peterson video. The video is called "Wild Chameleons in Florida?"

Here is the video:

Coyote Peterson is in Florida. Coyote Peterson is with a teenager named David. He is 16 years old. He really wanted to be on one of Coyote Peterson's videos. 

He did a video about Coyote Peterson and then Coyote Peterson saw it. So he said he is going to be on one of his videos, David was really excited. They found a Crabspider and Cane Toads and Cuban Tree frogs and geckos and all sorts of different kinds of animals. I wish I was David because he got to go explore with Coyote Peterson. It has been my dream to be with Coyote Peterson. I love animals and catching them and my favorite animal is snakes. And my second is a Cheetah and my third is a turtle. 

The best catch of the night was a Veiled Chameleon. I like Chameleons because of their color they can change their color to any color they want. The tongue is two-thirds of the length of the body and uses it to catch little insects.

There is a new Coyote Peterson video. The video is called."Mole Cricket Experiment!."

Here is the new video:

 Coyote Peterson is in Texas. I never heard of a Mole Cricket in my life. Coyote Peterson said the Mole Cricket is very strong and it can dig very fast under the ground. If you hear like a bit of like a frog noise and you hear it very close and you can't see it at all and it is coming from underground then that's probably the Mole Cricket. Coyote Peterson said when he didn't know where the noise was coming from he thought its a frog but he could not find it at all and then he searched it up on the internet and he found out what was the noise. And then knew what it was and where it was. Coyote Peterson said he never knew what a Mole Cricket was. It's pretty cool to see a mole cricket. What I like about the Mole Cricket is that it can dig fast underground. Coyote Peterson said when the males make like this type of noise that means the males are trying to attract the females and mate with them. 

I have been waiting for the Beast of Bites for three weeks and a half. I had pre-ordered the book. It finally came in. I was so happy when it came in the mail!

 What I like about the book is that it came with a signed bookplate. It had his signature made with the Coyote head sketch. It's really cool to see his handwriting in the book. 

Here is the signed bookplate

My brother said he was surprised that it had a hardcover so won't rip easily. The illustrations were by Johanna Tarkela. Here is her website: https://johannatarkela.com/ 

When I saw that it had the same name as me I was surprised. It had one illustration for each animal.

And it had lots of real pictures. The book has real pictures of Coyote Peterson getting bitten by lots of different types of animals. They are mostly water animals and the rest are land animals that Coyote Peterson talks about in the book. There are no flying animals in the book. I was very glad he did one chapter on a water snake because each snake is so unique. The other chapter that he put in there that I like is because it's about an attack dog. It's very cool to read about how strong the bite of an attack dog is. And I love dogs a lot. They're very cute and playful when they are not attacking.
