Snakes

If it is a very potent poison, then, yes. It can.

no rat snakes do not bite although they do let off a loud musky scent telling the predator to back off, although they are more afraid of you than you are of them

alot of vemon its more than the size of a ********** *******************

It depends on the species. Some species produce as few as 4, others as many as 120. The average seems to be about 10 for small snakes, 20 for medium sized, around 30 for larger snakes. Giant boas and pythons often produce about 60

Snakes are very varied and can prey upon small animals such as mice, birds and frogs or in some cases animals as large as small antelope (dog sized). There are animals that prey upon snakes such as eagles.

Guyanese snakes are found in South America, where Guyana is located. Depending on the type of snake they can live anywhere from in a tree, to under a stone, for more information on different types of snakes located in Guyana check out this page, https://sites.google.com/site/venomousdangerous/snakes/south-america-s-most-venomous-snakes. Once you find out what type of snake your curious about let me know and I would be happy to help you fine the answer of where it resides.

There are a lot of chemical weed and grass killers on the market, so if you are going to use chemicals to kill the grass, it is best to go to your local nursery or home improvement store and ask what they recommend. The chemical you use can depend on how much grass you want to kill and where it is located, such as a big area in your yard or grass in the cracks of a sidewalk. There are some natural products that kill grass, too. Some say that pickling vinegar, which is stronger than white vinegar, will kill anything it is sprayed on and, of course, it is safe to use around children and pets. Many stores that carry chemical grass killers also carry organic ones, and organic seed companies sell them, too.

Black Mamba Venom is the most rapid-acting venom of any snake species. It contains highly potent neurotoxins. It also contains cardiotoxins. Even a 10 to 15mg quantity of venom can be deadly to a human adult. It delivers an average of around 100 to 120 mg of venom and depending on the quantity of venom injected, it can potentially kill a human in less than 20 minutes. If bitten, neurological, respiratory and cardiovascular symptons begin within 15 mins or less. Symptions include dizziness, drowsiness, coughing and difficulty to breath. The fatality rate depends on various factors, such as the health, size, age, psychological state of the victim, the penetration of one or both fangs from the snake, amount of venom injected, location of the bite, and proximity to major blood vessels

Snakes have moist skin.

Snakes do not have lungs.

Snakes have two-chambered hearts.

Snakes have no legs.

Modern hominids are:

Homo sapiens

Australopithecus afarensis

Homo erectus

Homo habilis

One reason for the early success of reptiles was that

reptiles could reproduce away from water.

Reptiles were strictly aquatic.

Earth's climate became warmer and more humid.

Lakes and swamps became more numerous.

Most reptiles exchange gases through their:

gills

skin

lungs

limbs

One method snakes use to locate prey is to flick their tongue in the air and then draw their tongue across the roof of their mouth. In this method, the function of the tongue is to:

collect chemicals in the air

measure the temperature of the air

pick up vibrations from the air

sense the direction of the wind

No. Rattlesnakes are ectothermic, which is commonly referred to as 'cold-blooded'. Snakes are reptiles, and all reptiles are ectothermic, as are fish and amphibians. Their body temperature is dependent on external environmental conditions.

The most venomous snake on earth is the Belcher's Sea Snake (Hydrophis Belcheri) or the Faint Banded Sea Snake, some consider the Inland Taipan (Oxyuranus microlepidotus) an/or the Beaked Sea Snake (Enhydrina schistosa) to be the most toxic, however, with recent and more accurate studies prove the Belcheri has a 100 times more toxic venom then the two above or any other snake on earth.

It has a paddle-like tail, breathes air and can hold it's breath up to 8 hours, a few milligrams of venom can kill over a thousand people.

It's habitat is a wide range in the South Pacific.

Excluding the Belcher's Sea Snake the next most venomous snakes on earth according to their venom rating are:

2- Inland Tiapan (Oxyuranus Microlepidotus).

3- Common Indian Krait (Bungarus Caeruleus).

4- Philippine Cobra (Naja Philippinensis).

5- King Cobra (Ophiophagus Hanna).

6- Russell's Viper (Vipera Russellii).

7- Black Mamba (Dendroaspis Polylepis).

8- Yellow Jawed Tommygoff (Bothrops Asper).

9- Multibanded krait (Bungarus Multicinctus).

10- Tigar Snake (Notechis Scutatus).

11- Jararacussu (Bothrops Jararacussu).

Check out the picture in the top-left of the page in the link - it this what you meant ? In which case it''s a California King snake.

It is an instrument used when spaying a female dog.

It;s probably a gardner snake. A lot of them are tan with stripes.

it is the python and it can grow very, very long

It's possible for mice to injure snacks, and that might include nibbling away at them.

There's been many cases of irresponsible keepers giving a small snake too large of a mouse and the mouse injuring the snake as a result. That's why dead rodents are much safer to feed to snakes. If the snake is finicky and refuses to eat pre-dead food (which does happen) then they should be supervised during feedings and small prey should be given. When using live feed, many snake keepers prefer to knock the feed animal unconscious before putting it into the enclosure.

The same reason chickens run around or other animals squirm or kick after decapitation. Most animals do this. It is a result of the total loss of neural input from the brain to control muscles. The brain prevents muscles from moving as much as it controls their movement (all muscles work in pairs, when one muscle tenses, another must relax). Also, whatever stored up electrical energy is left in the body is left uncontrolled by the brain, and just travels unimpeded through the various body parts trying to get to ground, which causes more muscle spasms.

Which python?

Green tree pythons live in the canopy.

Royal pythons live on the ground but not in the rain forest.

Anacondas are boas and not pythons, but they also live on the ground/ in the water.

All species of venomous snake inject their poison through their fangs, which are actually like hollow needles.

Males will have a longer thicker tail then females.

Females tail will be short and thin.

Yes they do ! Some pythons inhabit caves that are used by bats - they wait until the bats fly in and out of the cave, then pluck them from the air as they fly past.

There are basically two kinds of snake venom, hemotoxins and neurotoxins. Hemotoxins destroy red blood cells and tissues; neurotoxins attack the central nervous system. Crotalids (rattlesnakes) have hemotoxins, but a few (Mohave rattlesnakes and hybrid rattlesnakes resulting from in-breeding with Mohave rattlesnakes) have both hemotoxins and neurotoxins. Moccasins (cottonmouths and copperheads) have only hemotoxins. Coral snakes have neurotoxins, as to non-U.S. snakes such as cobras, Kraits, and other "elapids". Hemotoxins kill by destroying tissue vital to the preservation of human life. Neurotoxins kill by paralyzing the nerves controlling the diaphram; the victim suffocates as a result.

Very few people in the United States die as a result of envenomated snake bites -- about a dozen or so per year. In India and other Asian countries, the number of deaths is much, much higher, in the tens of thousands per year.
