[edit] huh?

How do these squirrels "heat" rattlesnakes' tails? Do they have laser vision or something? (Sarcasm) But you might want to clarify.

I thought it meant that they were heating their own tails. But then, how does this confound the snakes? Wouldn't it make them easier to find? Definitely clarification is in order. --Hermitage 22:38, 10 September 2005 (UTC)
