What is a Snake?
Snakes are long, legless reptiles that slither smoothly across the ground using strong muscles and scales on their belly. They can live in many different places, from forests and deserts to grasslands and wetlands. Most snakes are not dangerous to humans and play an important role in nature by eating pests like rats and insects. Depending on the species, snakes can live for several years, with some even reaching over 20 years in the wild. They come in a variety of sizes and weights, from tiny thread snakes to giant pythons. Their skin is dry and covered in smooth or rough scales that they shed as they grow. Snakes do not have eyelids, and they flick their forked tongues to smell the air around them. While they do not roar or chirp, some can hiss loudly to warn others. Their diet includes rodents, birds, eggs, frogs, and even other snakes.
