Some reptiles have a reputation for being aggressive, difficult, or even dangerous—but how much of it is actually true?
This week, we're putting some of the reptile world's biggest stereotypes to the test as we decide which reputations are completely deserved, only partially true, or totally misunderstood. From tokay geckos and reticulated pythons to chameleons and more, we're sharing our thoughts on where these reputations came from and whether they're actually fair.
Before we get into the debate, we chat about the yellow tiger salamander featured in the new Toy Story movie and what we thought about seeing an amphibian make its Pixar debut. To wrap things up, it's time for another round of Smash or Pass, where we're ranking all things summer—from kayaking and paddleboarding to water parks, tubing, and everything in between.
Whether you're here to defend your favorite reptile or just enjoy a fun summer debate, this episode has a little something for everyone!
