Each spring in Canada runs the world's largest collection of snakes
Period sparivaniya
Every spring the Canadian prairies in Manitoba are nightmarish sea of writhing snakes. Thousands huddled in a bunch of harmless snakes striped with red stripes on the sides come together, and it is the largest collection of snakes in the world. After a long hibernation, they creep out into the fresh air to frolic in the sun and spend their mating rituals.
An exciting event is held in Narcisse Snake Dance, a few kilometers north of the Narcisse, Manitoba. What makes Narcissus equivalent of a rock concert in the snake world? The answer goes back to the Paleozoic era, when the territory was covered by Manitoba ancient ocean. Water is no longer there, but the seabed is still there - layer upon layer of limestone covers the territory, forming thousands of natural niches, tunnels and caves. Rainwater seeps through the cracks, and when the rock breaks through the surface, resulting in the collapse of the pit is obtained.
Cold-blooded snakes like these pits, which are ideal for hibernation during the harsh Canadian winter, when temperatures can drop to 50 degrees below zero. Therefore, they migrate and settle anywhere in these craters. Due to the limited number of failures snake from that territory must crawl in the near den. Therefore, literally tens of thousands of snakes crowd into a funnel size of an average living room.
Snakes remain there all winter, to slip out of their homes limestone in late April - early May, when the snow come down. The males come out first and start the game: they hang out on the surface of the huge heaps of tangled and are awaiting the arrival of the females. When the female finally arrive up to 50 males may aim for one female. Together they form a huge "mating ball" moving on the ground.
Narcisse Snake Dance - pretty popular place: every year, tourists and scientists from around the world come syuda¸ to enjoy a spectacular view of the sea snakes.
