Description: Dr. Glenn Tattersall of Brock University took this photograph by using a thermal-imaging camera. Note the cold skin of the snake versus the warm surface of the mouse, although they are both at the same environmental temperature. Note also that the tips of the mouse's ears are cooler than its body.
