Animal Awesomeness: 1) Ada Barak’s spa in the northern Israeli town of Talmey El’Azar features a “snake massage” for the equivalent of $70, for which six king snakes or milk snakes slither over the client’s body (a therapy said not to be stress-increasing, but stress-reducing, according to a January Reuters dispatch).

2) Another January Reuters dispatch, from Antwerp, Belgium, reported that doctors at the city’s Aquatopia animal showcase had scheduled surgery to relieve Mozart, the iguana, of his painful priapism in one of his two functional penises.
