  • A view of the lesser striped scorpion (Hoffmannius coahuilae) showing how well it blends in with its environment.

  • Common across nearly all of North America, common burdock look slike just another thistle, except that it actually isn't a thistle at all. A native of Europe, bats have been known to die after becoming entangled in the burrs.
