Why did Satan enter the serpent rather than another creature?

Satan was still noticed and recognised and revealed fully in New testament. Satan was the Old serpent meaning from the garden who is the great dragon. Rev 12:9 and 20:2 is clear there. rev 20:2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that OLD SERPENT, which IS THE DEVIL, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years ..(emphasis added) rev 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old SERPENT, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. So the serpent which was an actual serpent was the Devil in the form of the serpent, which many believe that Satan entered into him like he did with Judas at the sop.

In the Garden of Eden was the serpent beast before the curse?

Yes, Genesis 3:1 states that serpent was "more subtil than all the beasts of the field". In addition, when God cursed the serpent he became a snake, that is, crawled on his belly. If this is not so then the curse God pronounced had little effect. Finally, a snake has a forked tongue and cannot articulate words. Thus the original serpent was an upright beast. The Hebrew word for serpent comes from the root "nachash" meaning: to practice divination, divine, observe signs, learn by experience, diligently observe, practice fortunetelling, take as an omen [Strong's Lexicon 5172] Also see REVELATION 12:9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. Notice the words "old serpent" who deceives. Remember that the devil through the serpent brought the original sin in the Garden of Eden and attempts a final great deception "mark of the beast" in the book of revelations.
