Snakes

Snakes curl up when they are sleeping and resting. Snakes may also begin to curl before an attack. It is best to stay away from a snake if you are not sure what the behavior is.

Why did Pharaohs wear snakes on their crowns

Snakes, including sea snakes, are vertebrates and more specifically reptiles.

they love to swim in nasty creeks they also like being around fallen trees that have fallen in creeks or pounds be careful because some are aggressive. i found one sun bathing on a creeks bank but when i came he went straight for the water

Yes. The human bite s full of bacteria and other germs. Bye!

Not all snakes, but there are certain desert species that will.

Well my friend, since venom means poison, I would imagine so.

Although you never see it on television wildlife programs, the saw scaled viper is responsible for more deaths, worldwide, than any other snake. It isn't very big, from one to two feet in length, but it is very aggressive and its hemotoxic venom is very lethal in humans. They are found in the Middle East, Pakistan, and India. I'm sure that if they were larger and flared their necks like a cobra, they'd get better press.

they are snakes and while they are aquatic they spend most of their time like seals do in both water and on land

Why kill a snake? They are all beneficial, even the venomous snakes are beneficial by helping control populations of rodents. If a snake is in an area where it might be a danger to people or to itself, call your animal control office to have it removed and relocated.

:)swamp+egg= lizard i'm sure

it can be but pour a llot of bleach on it face

Horned viper snakes are carnivores and their diets consist mainly of lizards, rodents, and birds. The jerboa is a type of rodent that this snakes preys on. Horned viper snakes are venomous and inhabit desert regions of North Africa.

It depends from state to state. For example, in Colorado, the owning of any poisonous snake is prohibited. In California, if you have a permit, you may own a rear fanged venomous snake, but not a front fanged. In Texas, you may own any sort of species of snake that you like without any sort of permit. Now if it bites someone, and they are injured or die, then you can be charged in court. IT all depends on where you live.

Yes it's possible (in 25+ years of keeping reptiles, I've had two cases) - but it's fairly easy to cure. Most snakes will defecate about 4-10 days after eating (depending on the species) Keeping accurate behavioural records will help you notice if anything is 'out of the ordinary'

I keep meticulous records for all of my 400+ reptiles. Logging such data as when they start and end their shed, what food they eat (and how much) and when they defecate. That way, I know when something may be wrong.

Two. The timber rattler and the copperhead.

They use their tongues, with which they pick up particles and leave them to a special organ called vomeronasal organ.

The mouth because it has to eat it and it grabs it with its mouth after it finds it food by using its tongue to smell and by sensing vibration in the floor. Many snakes will also use their muscular bodies to kill their prey, a process known as constriction.

Rattle snakes are probably one of the most poisonous snakes in Texas

my brother owns a snake and a snakes vision is based on heat,

so like if a snake looks at a chair it would be blue cause it got no heat and if it looked at you it would be red. a snakes world of seeing is full of blue and red blurs and out linings that's why snakes alway's accidently bit people.

snakes are interesting animals :)

With they're tongue.

Go to bing and type in chaparral food web. That will give you better answers than Google or yahoo.

yes, endo means inside.

exoskeleton means outside, like a shell-crab, scorpion, lobster and others

Referring to the coloured bands... Red touches yellow - kill a fellow. Red touches black - venom lack.

The order of the bands on a Coral snake is red, yellow, black, yellow.

With the harmless king snake it's red, black, yellow, black.
