There’s approximately one penis per snake on average. The number for most other species is around 0.5.

And then there's echidnas.
And the tapir, oh fuck…
Like a cube at the end of a stocking.

Snek pic
While interesting, how is this a meme? Draw a comic about it or something
Also, TIL
Often times, female snakes and lizards also have the ability to control whether they get pregnant immediately after mating or not, to account for the fact that the ideal time for mating may not translate to the most optimal time for ovulation and gestation. Consequently, females can store sperm internally for as long as five years, or possibly longer.
I'm mostly amazed they can keep the sperm alive for 5 years.
Two penises, no hands. Life is unfair.
This is a meme?
Just like Klingons.
First time on e6 huh?
Well, and females have two clits.
The more you know 🌈
Double the disappointment
