Freed This Snail From Demise
Cepaea Nemoralis (Brown Lipped Snail) was on the glass garage door that opens to our patio at work. Put them in some nice moss right after this.

▲ 3 r/ballpython
I just got a ball python, he was being rehomed because his owner felt he wasn’t getting enough stimulation.
I paid 300$ for him and got him just a day ago. While he likes his enclosure, he mostly just hides. I take him out a few times a day, usually while I am watching something or doing laundry. He loves being curled around my neck and sometimes he will adventure on the couch a bit.
He also loves my plants so so much.
Now when I try to put him back he firmly resists, immediately trying to escape his enclosure. He believes he should just be glued to me I think.
I am not sure what to do as I am worried about the little guy.
I guess the question is, how do I make the transition from being out of his enclosure to being back in his enclosure feel more comfortable for him?

Tiny Ontario Fossil Collection
With Ontario having been underwater so long most of the fossils I have found are from corals, shells, very worn shark teeth, trace fossils of tube worms, and crinoids. Some of the inclusions contain iron, some others have crystallized and look stunning! I have collected these since my childhood as I was left out of school since grade 4 and had plenty of time to kill looking at gravel. My mother had been studying to be an anthropologist and helped me identify many of them. I have always loved fossils. I am curious about some of them, so feel free to tell me what they are if you have an educated guess :)

What Does This Rib Belong To
I think it might be a deer, but I wanted a second opinion. It was maybe 4-5 inches long and only an inch-inch 1/2 in diameter. Found in North-Eastern Ontario by a creek.
