This coyote came into the field behind our yard one evening after a rainstorm, and decided to snack on peanuts that I'd strewn in the field for the birds and squirrels.

Eslizón Rayado de Wahlberg (Trachylepis wahlbergii)Autor
jakobDescripción
One of the 2 is fake - guess which one.
Solution for all who are still wondering: The plastic rattle snake has been put in the entrance of the camp kitchen as a deterrent against the local troop of Malbrouck Monkeys, which used to raid the stored food, and surprisingly they never ever entered the kitchen since then.
This skink, however, equipped with astounding cognitive abilities, shows off with his balls of steel.
Err, I think it's a female....

A scrappy expanse of silky refuges and capture webs littered with body parts of previous victims. When preferred prey is entangled, the female spiders emerge from their 'nests' and overpower it by grabbing its extremities. In this case, a wasp https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/9319446.
Presumably they inject venom because after a minute or so the prey stops struggling. Then they snip it out of the web and carry it into one of several 'nests' or refuges.
Unwanted prey, often beetles (see https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/9319435 ) are also killed but sometimes left in the web, uneaten. Ants, in this case, Maranoplus ( https://www.inaturalist.org/observations/9319390 )scavenge around the periphery of the webs, feasting on unwanted beetles or other left-overs.
