Many attacks (2-10) Agkistrodon blomhoffii (chemically oriented) were directed to the warm mouse by every when vision is blocked thermal informa? snake , and no attacks were directed to the tion appears to be more effective than room temperature mouse (de Cock Buning chemical stimulation alone, but when the et al, 1981a).

In infrared imaging snakes , TRPA1 shows an extremely robust response to infrared heat sources, mainly by lowering the thermal activity threshold. 45 Interestingly, the positions of the replacement sites in hot-spring snake differed from the specific amino acid replacements in infrared imaging snakes (Figure 5 D).

Thermal Sensitivity as a Specialization for Prey Capture and Feeding in ...

Abstract Behavior can be regarded as a result of various processes of decision based on the information provided by the sensory organs. In this review the role of the so-called additional heat sense, next to vision, smell and mechanoreception is discussed with respect to the feeding behavior of snakes . The hierarchy of the sensory information in various phases of the feeding behavior differs ...
Pit organ performance should depend on snake body temperature and thermal contrast between a target and its background. The warm receptors in the pit membrane show a phasic-accommodative response (Bullock and Diecke, 1956; Goris and Terashima, 1973).
The postprandial NANC stimulation is obvious from the elevation HR after full autonomic blockade in digesting snakes , and the observation that infusion of plasma from digesting snakes stimulates HR in fasting snakes with full autonomic blockade.
