The evolutionary journey of snakes has fascinated scientists and animal enthusiasts alike. This recent YouTube video by Allen Pan takes a humorous yet thoughtful approach to this subject.
The Experiment
Determined to showcase his affection for these misunderstood reptiles, Pan tackled a unique mission: to give snakes their legs back.
The video opens with Pan attempting to consult with a snake expert at the LA Zoo, but the high costs deter him.
Instead, Pan turns to a more affordable method of gathering information by hosting a reptile-themed birthday party at a pet store.
It is here that he uncovers a fascinating fact about snake embryology: snakes do initially develop legs in their embryonic stage, but due to genetic mutations, they end up with two penises instead of legs.
The Prosthetic Legs
As a result, Pan sets out to design robotic legs for snakes.
The video details his meticulous study of animals with legs to devise a leg prototype that could be compatible with snakes.
Despite an initial failure, Pan’s persistence leads to the creation of a second version of the prosthetic legs.
Pan’s approach is marked by a blend of scientific curiosity and a desire to enhance the lives of these reptiles.
Ethical Considerations
Throughout the video, Pan navigates the ethical implications of his experiment with care and humor.
He consults with a professional snake breeder to ensure the snakes’ well-being.
The safety and ethical treatment of the animals are paramount, and the final test showed a snake voluntarily using the robotic legs.
This moment of success is presented with a mixture of triumph and whimsy as Pan reflects on the broader implications of his project.
