Kind of looks like the remains of the AGW theory doesn't it.
Nothing but bare bones encircling the empty space where its intended victims got bored waiting to be destroyed & finally left before it could tighten its "alarming" "unprecedented" CO2 powered coils.
But not to worry, there are still a few old diehard ghosts around to worship how mighty it once was.
Bergman's Rule suggests that as climates get colder, mammals get larger but heat by itself won't cause dwarfing in mammals and giant reptiles. It just happened that way IMO after the end of the Dinosaurs (and Paleocene) due to available niches and available animals to fill them. Suggesting that large snakes will pop out of thin hot air has got to be one of the dumbest predictions I read in a while. What after that, Velocirapters?
According to the article, warmer temperatures makes for smaller animals.
One more thing to add to the list:

The list goes from smog to snowfall without any snakes so far: "... smog, snowfall decrease, snowfall increase ..."
The general rule is: Furry things with big brown eyes will be negatively affected while anything slimy or spidery will grow bigger.
Guinea pigs are ok for Peruvians. Snails for French . Macs for Yanks.
Next lie from the denialists? Yes. If you concentrated on claim that are actually made you may retain what little credibility you have. Which is less than zero
More scare tactics Boogie man global warming will
replace Jason , Freddy and Chuckie .
I think its cool. Of course I would specifically seek to kill and eradicate the species at every conceivable opportunity...
Hey! They found my man-made, over-sized slinky!
Science is losing credibility with every 'news release'. and then they try and solve life's mystery's all over again ... : http://www.theverge.com/2013/11/7/507866...
They do this after having troubles with their own science :
Lol... well alarmists have to come up with something. These are desperate times for them as temperatures are failing to rise with a rise in CO2.

Wouldn't that be cool! But I'm sure Kevin Bacon and Reba McEntire could save us from them, just like they did in the movie Tremors.
Wrong link, Sagebrush. Here you go: http://christopheranton.hubpages.com/hub...
But don't try to duck and take cover under your bed. Al Gore is probably hiding there with Voldemort, Dracula and Obama's loony-bid preacher, and armed with carbon taxes. F-students in science pay double!
I thought animals were shrinking because of global warming?
And to think Jay Busbee actually got paid for writing that nonsense.

As long as they feed on deniers...no great loss
