Cambodian wildlife.
Investigated what I thought was a mouses tail sticking out from between some items in my kitchen, turned out to be this little guy, I believe it’s a Long Tailed Grass Lizard, first one I’ve ever seen, his tail is about 4 times the length of his body.

Re: Cambodian wildlife.
I don't think I've seen one of those.
I was in a restaurant across from my house last night and they have a four meter wild Burmese Python slithering around the ceiling.

Silence, exile, and cunning.

I’ve another photo giving a better view with the tail straitened out but the file is too large for me to post, but I’ll bet the tail is closer to 5 times the body’s length (500%)
If it didn’t have those skinny little legs it’d be a snake.
I’m yet to see a python here, plenty of cobras the last few days, a neighbor has been clearing a bamboo grove.

Re: Cambodian wildlife.
I've seen a few pythons but have yet to see a cobra. I'm not too keen on those.
Silence, exile, and cunning.

The tabby was three and a half years old.

A woman in Singapore has lost her beloved pet cat, Benji, to a reticulated python.
According to The Straits Times (ST), the incident took place at the owner's condominium in Tanah Merah.
Angel Low, 28, posted an open letter to Mandai Wildlife Reserve about the incident and how she learned of her pet's carcass being disposed of after reaching the Singapore zoo.
The teacher wrote that a python had appeared in her residence was Aug. 29, but was caught by Acres shortly after.
Through a video filmed by other residents, Low saw that the reptile was sporting a "huge" belly when it was being taken away to be handed over to the zoo.
The same night, Benji failed to return home.
Fearing for the worst, Low reached out to the animal welfare organisation.
The following day, she learned that the snake had vomited up Benji's carcass while on the way to the zoo. Low was then told that the cat's body had been picked up by a biohazard company at the zoo and disposed of.
